Description: | A copper alloy Medieval buckle plate dating from about AD 1200 - 1500. The composite plate is made from two rectangular sheets of metal mounted on a shorter folded sheet which forms the hinge arms. The arms are broken and no longer form a loop to hold the bar. Two copper alloy rivets at the hinge end fasten the three plates of metal together. A single domed copper alloy rivet nearer the other end would have attached the front and back plate to a strap. The buckle plate has suffered bending in the middle and the back plate has snapped here. The object is 30.7mm long, 12.4mm wide and 4.9mm thick. 3.39g.
