Description: | Post Medieval cast copper alloy single loop buckle frame. The frame is sub-rectangular with an expanded D shaped outer edge and slightly concave upper and lower side. The outer edge has a double ongee curve on the inner side with a central notch and two indented curved lines following the line of the outer edge on the upper side. The upper and lower sides are D shaped in section with a flat inner side and convex curved outer side; in profile they end in a raised collar and circular terminal, from the back of which projects the strap bar. The strap bar is circular in section, narrowed and recessed with iron corrosion around it, possibly the remains of the pin. There are extensive traces of a white metal coating, probably tinning. The frame is 30.1mm long, 24.5mm wide and 7.7mm thick; it weighs 7.06 grams.A similar frame is illustrated by Whitehead (2003:29), no.157, which he dates to c.1500-1650 AD.
