Description: | An incomplete Medieval (1350-1450) copper alloy buckle pin missing roughly half the loop (old break) and possibly the very tip, measuring 42.54mm in length and weighing 5.1g.The tip of the pin curves downwards with a curving concavity on its underside (to rest on the buckle frame), and appears foreshortened (old break if so).There is a rectangular swelling to the front of the pin just below the remains of loop. It is triangular in section, and decorated with two transverse grooves creating a central transverse rib. The shank measures 6.79mm thick here and 4.60mm wide. It narrows to 3.58m wide and 3.71mm thick just above the tip and further to 3.16x1.52mm at the tip.Cf.Egan & Pritchard 1991, p.115 fig.75.
