Description: | A copper-alloy medieval to post-medieval (AD c1300-1500) strap end or buckle plate. The object is formed from a rectangular plate (0.45mm thick) with rounded terminals, which has been bent back on itself so that it now measures 10.95mm in length, 6.65mm in width, and 2.80mm in thickness. It weighs 0.36g. There are two circular perforations through it, the one closest to the bend being slightly larger than the other, perhaps indicative that this was for the pin of a buckle rather than a rivet hole. The smaller hole still contains part of the iron rivet on one side. The plate is otherwise flat and undecorated.
