Description: | Post medieval cast copper-alloy double loop buckle with trapezoid loops, complete with pin. The loops widen away from the strap bar and are triangular in section with a flat back and angled inner and outer sides. The strap bar is narrowed and recessed with lobed knops at either end. There extensive traces of tinning. The pin is D-shaped in section with a flat back and narrows gradually and consistantly from the loop over the strap bar to a sharp point. The pin has corroded to a much redder colour than the frame and is possibly a higher copper composition.Whitehead (2003:82) illustrates a similar example, no.507, which he dates to c.AD 1570-1700.
