Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy buckle plate of Medieval date. It is missing its lower plate due to old breaks and has extremely worn surfaces due to post-depositional corrosion. The plate is flat, rectangular in form with rectangular frame recesses and pin slot. It has five circular rivet holes, one in each corner and one at the centre of the plate, one of the holes at the attachment end preserving a separately cast copper-alloy rivet with flattened round head. Although the surfaces of the object have been virtually removed due to post-depositional damage and corrosion, traces of a dark green patina are visible as well as small areas of gilding. It measures 37.88mm in length, 20.90mm in width, 1.73mm in thickness and 4.69g in weight. This is an incomplete buckle plate of probable Medieval date, c.13th-15th centuries AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
