Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy Medieval buckle. Only part of the loop survives. It is oval in plan, and has a flat cross section. The outer edge is flat, and then turns at a right angle to form a vertical lip that sticks out from the buckle. The outer edge is scallop shaped with radiating groves, and 12 recessed perforations. They are all irregular and may have been drilled after the object was cast. All that remains of the strap bar are 2 small pointed sections. It is quite worn and has a brownish green patina. A similar buckle can be seen on the database NMS-8A6FE1. Also an example of a buckle like this one in style can be seen in Whitehead p35 no204. This is likely to be Medieval, probably late Medieval 14th or 15th century.38.42mm L x 25.88mm W x 1.96mm T 8.0g
