Description: | Post Medieval cast copper alloy double loop buckle frame. The loops are oval and triangular in cross section with a flat back and inner side and bevelled outer edge and top. The strap bar is narrowed with a lobed knop at either end. From the centre of the outer edge of each loop projects a large oval knop with five incised lines running across it at right angles to the loop. This gives the knop the appearence of a scallop shell. The pin and plate are missing and the frame is highly corroded. It is 41.4mm long, 20.9mm wide and 3.1mm thick, it weighs 4.73 grams. Whitehead (2003) illustrates a similar buckle, p.62, No.371 which he dates to c.1550-1650 AD.
