Title
Copper Alloy Buckle
Description
English: Medieval buckle frame, pin and plate made from copper alloy. The frame is sub-rectangular internally and oval externally; the bar is hard to distinguish from the rest of the frame. The plate is made from a piece of rectangular sheet folded over the bar, with a pin slot and frame recesses cut out. The underplate is broken halfway along, and the upper plate is creased in the same place. The plate was originally secured to the strap with a pair of copper-alloy rivets; one is now missing along with the corner of the plate. The pin is rounded in cross-section, with one end flattened and wrapped around the bar; it is now a little bent. There is no visible decoration on frame, pin or plate. The frame measures 23 mm wide and the plate is 16.5 mm wide. The total length is 44 mm and the weight is 6.69g.
