Description: | A damaged single-looped cast copper-alloy buckle frame of medieval date. The buckle is of oval form with a narrowed and offset pin bar; it is incomplete in so far as the pin is missing. The outer edge is expanded (max. W.: 7.35mm) and angled, as with an example illustrated in Griffiths (et al. 2008, 91; ref. 484). On the internal edge on the upper surface there appears to be a short triangular pin rest. The frame is seemingly plain and has suffered a number of strikes in the past such that it is now misaligned. The artefact has corroded to a variable mid-green colour, with some areas of darker, duller patina. Buckles of similar form and dimensions can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 70; fig. 42).
