Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle pin. The pin is a sub-rectangle in plan. The tip is a slightly tapering blunt point, whereas the opposite terminal, in profile, forms the start of a curve which originaly would be where the pin curls around the frame. The upper surface, as the curl starts, is decorated with a single transverse linear ridge. The pin has a dark green coloured patina. It measures 35.43mm long, 3.3mm wide and weighs 1.8g. In Ottaway (Ottaway, P. and Rogers, N. 2002 Craft, Industry and Everyday Life: Finds From Medieval York York Archaeological Trust and CBA) there is a similar example, No. 14336, which is dated to the 14th century.
