Description: | Cast copper alloy double-loop rectangular buckle frame. The frame is rectangular in plan, and plano-convex in section and profile, with a bevelled inner edge and sloping outside edge. The back of the frame is flat and flush with the back of the pin bar. The pin bar is narrowed and rounded so that is plano-convex in section. The pin is missing, but was likely made of iron as there are iron oxides attached to the back of the frame at one end.Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar example on page 75, No.458, which is dated from c.1570-1700.Read (1988) illustrates another example, which is identified as a girdle buckle, on p.142, No. 903, dated from c.1600 -1700.
