Description: | Medieval (late 14th to early 16th century) annular buckle: In plan, the copper alloy buckle frame is sub-circular and is sub-oval in section. The frame is undecorated. There is an incomplete cast copper alloy pin curled around the frame which is sub-rectangular in section and tapers slightly, and the tip is missing. Similar buckles are illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (2002), for example No. 28. Egan and Pritchard (2002:57) comment that these frames, without constrictions for the pin are considered to be buckles, and those with a constriction are brooches. As a buckle it is commented that these may have been used on shoes. They date to the late 14th to early 16th century.
