Description: | An incomplete and misshapen cast copper-alloy double-looped trapezoidal buckle of post-Medieval date (c. 1620- c. 1680). The pin is missing. The frame is symmetrical in plan and is slightly convex at the front and flat at the rear. Each loop is trapezoidal in plan and the frame is rectangular in cross-section. The outside edges have lobed knops at each end and a triangular protrusion at the centre and each has a pin-rest. The narrowed bar is oval in cross-section and extends slightly beyond the frame at each end. This buckle is corroded and has traces of a dark green patina. The buckle is damaged as one of the loops is turned upwards at an angle and one side of the frame is fractured.30.1 x 21.3 x 1.9mm. Weight: 3.79g.Similar buckles have been published and dated c. 1620-c. 1680 (Whitehead 1996: 84, refs: 523 and 524).
