Description: | An incomplete buckle of post-Medieval date (c. 1575-c. 1700) The pin is missing.The frame is 'D'-shaped in plan. It is convex at the front and flat at the rear. However, at the rear the inner edges of the frame, but not the bar, are bevelled. The semi-circular outside edge has triple grooves, the centre one serving as a pin-rest. On the front, at each side of the frame, close to the bar, there is a moulded scroll ornament. The narrowed bar is 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. At the centre of the bar a deposit of iron staining indicates that the missing pin was probably made of iron.The front has a shiny dark green patina and at the rear a similar patina is less shiny.27.9 x 25.8 x 2.4mm. Weight: 4.31g.
