Description: | A slightly corroded but complete Medieval (c.1300-1400) copper alloy annular buckle and pin, measuring 42.52mm diameter, (internal 33.9mm) and weighing 18.4g.The pin is worn but complete. Its upper edge is domed and decorated with a 2.8mm wide transverse rib below the loop. It measures 4.61mm wide and tapers slightly towards the 'point' end which is bent upwards slightly (3.18mm wide). The patina, where it survives, is smooth and shiny.The circular frame is plain and the patina smooth and in patches shiny. There is no constriction for the pin although there can been seen on the circular frame two areas where the pin may have rested and left a small groove.Two similar buckles can be seen in 'Meols: The Archaeology of the North Wirral Coast' (2007, p. 87, nos. 430 and 432).
