Description: | An incomplete and slightly misshapen post-Medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle (c. 1500-c. 1650). The frame is convex at the front and each outside edge on the underside is slightly concave. It has a central narrowed bar, roughly 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. At each end of the bar there is a minor knop. This buckle is not very sturdy and the metal is quite thin at the outside edges. The pin is missing.A patina has not survived and the drab matt reddish brown metal is partially obscured by superficial light green corrosion products.23.8 x 17.7 x 2.6mm. Weight: 1.66g.Similar buckles have been published and dated c. 1500-1650 (Whitehead 1996: 54).
