Description: | Medieval cast copper alloy single loop D-shaped buckle frame. The frame has a bevelled, widened and thickened outer edge and a narrowed and offset strap bar. The pin is missing but there is iron staining at the centre of the strap bar suggesting it may have been iron. The frame measures 21.1mm long by 25.4mm and wide and is a maximum of 4.3mm thick; the entire thing weighs 3.59gms. Egan and Pritchard (1991) illustrate a very similar example (page 69 and plate 41 ref: 264) and they suggest this is a long lived form dating from the mid 12th century to the turn of the 15th.
