Description: | An incomplete Medieval (1200-1450) copper-alloy brooch or buckle pin, missing part of the loop. Below the loop is a two-dimensional 'brambled boss' consisting of a widened grip bearing five transverse ridges and traces of gilding (which would have originally covered the object). Beyond the shank is D-shaped in cross-section, being flat to the underside, and tapers to a blunted tip which has a slight curve to accomodate the frame. The pin measures 33.88mm in length, 5.93mm in width, has a maximum thickness of 2.85mm and weighs 1.88g. The metal is a greenish-brown colour and is worn.
