Description: | A complete medieval cast copper-alloy probable annular buckle. The frame is circular, formed of a hoop of flattened circular cross-section. The pin survives looped around the hoop at the U-shaped terminal loop formed by pressing the ends of the penannular loop together. Beyond is a flattened globular collar possibly with longitudinal decoration now unclear due to corrosion. The pin, circular in cross-section, tapers narrows to a sharp point and falls short of the hoop. This artefact has corroded to a dull red/brown colour with patches of off-white corrosion product. Traces of gilding survive on both hoop and pin, at one section of the hoop in a ring around the circumference.
