Description: | Medieval cast copper alloy buckle frame with ornate outer edge. The strap bar is narrowed and offset. The outer edge is decorated by 4 knops projecting outwards seperated by grooves and by collars between the inner two and outer two knops; the outer knops project out at an angle. The rest of the frame is D shaped in section with a flat inner side. It is 15.7mm long, 17.6mm wide, 3.0mm thick and weighs 1.94 grams. Egan and Pritchard (1991) illustrate similar buckles e.g. No 302, which lacks the extra collars, (pp73-4), which they date to 1200-1400 AD (p.77).
