Description: | Copper alloy, Iron and LeatherBuckle. Cast rectangular copper alloy buckle with sheet metal roller and with an oval ended plate looped around its inner edge. A domed rivet of head diameter 3.6mm and length 7mm stands proud where it passes through the plate close to its curved end. An iron pin remains in situ at the buckle, and extensive orange corrosion spreads within the loop and across the display face of the buckle. Fibrous material trapped between the plates of the buckle probably includes the degraded remains of a strap preserved by the proximity of the metal, along with infiltrated soil, and suggests that the buckle was discarded along with the belt. Suggested date: Late Medieval, 1350-1400.Length: 31.6mm, Height: 16.7mm, Thickness (overall, at roller): 7.2mm, Weight (as submitted): 6.50gms.
