Title
Late medieval to early post-medieval annular buckle
Description
English: A bent copper-alloy annular buckle of suggested mid 15th to mid 16th century AD date (R. Whitehead; 1996; pp. 47).

The frame is sub-circular, the edges taking the form of moulded petals with incised line decoration. At the centre of one of the vertical edges is a more defined v-shaped notch, which probably marks the point of the pin rest. The central axis bar is of semi-circular section and has some attached iron corrosion from the now-missing pin.

The piece measures 29.2mm wide, 19.9mm high and 1.7mm thick; it weighs 5.45g.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Hertfordshire
