On the projecting outer edge two large lobed knops flank a long constriction with a copper alloy sheet roller. The pin is made of copper alloy wire and is looped completely around the strap bar, it is 1.6mm in diameter and bevelled at the tip. Measures 24.7mm by 18.7mm and 4.6mm thick; weighs 4.34 grams. Egan and Pritchard (1991) illustrate a similar example (page 73 ref: 298) which they date from the late 12th to late 14th centuries.
