Title
A Post Medieval copper alloy buckle probably dating AD1630-1650.
Description
English: A Post Medieval copper alloy buckle probably dating AD1630-1650. This is a D-shaped buckle with central bar. The profile is slightly irregular but it is curved. The frame is decorated with vestigial side knops and moulding on the curved outer edge where the pin would rest. The pin is no longer present. There is a rectangular tab projecting from the flat outer edge.

A very similar buckle is published in Egan (2005:36 no. 101) which was excavated from a context dating AD1630-1650. A very similar example is recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database: LON-2BC0A4; LON-311311 is a larger, more regular form which may represent a better quality type of this form.

Dimensions: length: 14.27 mm; width: 19.41mm; thickness: 2.76mm; weight: 1.39g.
