Description: | A cast copper alloy single loop strap clasp with a narrowed strap bar, dating from AD 1300 - 1400. The clasp has a rectangular frame with moulded crowned head in high relief on the outer edge. There is some damage to the crown - one corner is missing, otherwise the clasp would have had four holes in the crown and two either side of the neck. The detail of the face is quite crude in design; there are triangular incised lines for the eyes and for the mouth.The clasp measures 39.41mm long, 19.26mm wide and is 5.17mm thick. It weighs 7.7gms.
