Description: | An incomplete and corroded Medieval buckle with an integral box plate (1400-1500).The frame is largely missing and two stubs of it survive. The pin is also missing.Between the stubs there is a slot and bar for the pin. The junction beyond is waisted, and is divided from the box plate by a pair of transverse ridges on the upper surface. The plate itself is trapezoidal in form, widening from a width of 21.0mm at the frame end to 24.0mm at the attachment end. The hollow box is empty and close to the attachment end are two small rivet holes piercing the front and back. There are the remains of an iron rivet in one hole.On its upper surface the plate is inscribed with illegible letters in Blackletter script in low relief, perhaps 'ihc'.This buckle is green and red and the breaks are abraded.Length: 35.5mm; width: 24.0mm; thickness: 7.7mm. Weight: 19.04g.
