Title
Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) Buckle (with separate folded plate)
Description
English: An Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) cast copper-alloy buckle frame with an incomplete separate folded sheet copper-alloy plate (450-600).

The frame is 'D'-shaped in plan, convex at the front and flat at the rear. The narrowed bar is circular in cross-section. The copper-alloy pin is 'D'-shaped in cross-section flat at the rear. It has an enclosing loop around the bar and the tip of the tapering pin projects downwards. The sheet plate is now irregular in plan due to loss of material around the edges. It has a rectangular slot to accommodate the pin.


All three elements have traces of a green patina with patches of concreted soil.


Frame: length: 13.95mm; width: 24.26mm; thickness: 4.49mm. Overall weight: 6.75g.
