Description: | A copper alloy late Medieval or Post-Medieval annular brooch or buckle pin (c. 1200-1500 AD). It is of heavy, cast construction, sub-rectangular in section, tapering to a point and has a raised moulding. The relatively blunt point implies that this could have formed the pin of an annular buckle rather than a brooch. The head simply curves round, but part is missing. It is difficult to confidently identify this object as either a brooch or buckle pin without the accompanying frame, there are a number of parallels in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 58 & 249). Comparable to record HESH-170955 and NCL-2B9D01.
