Description: | An apparently incomplete Medieval (1200 - 1400) copper alloy oval buckle frame with narrowed and offset bar, missing its pin. It retains traces of gilding. At the outside edge is a D-shaped projection with a rivet through the centre with a circular head to the front (c.7mm diameter) of a different, rather greyer-in-colour copper alloy. The arms of the buckle are triangular in cross-section, being flat to the underside with a steeply angled inside edge. It measures 21.03x21.39mm, the length of the frame without the projection being 13.5mm and the internal measurement of the loop being 9.74x15.03mm. It weighs 2.50g.Egan & Pritchard (1991; p.73, fig.44) date oval buckle frames with ornate outside edges between 1200 and 1400.
