A complete copper-alloy probable buckle with attached copper-alloy pin of medieval circa 1300-1500 AD date. The frame is circular and has a rectangular cross-section it measures 19.4mm in external diameter and 14.5mm in internal diameter. The pin is attached via an open loop and there is no pin constriction, it can therefore move freely around the frame.

Object type: PURSE
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A large oval loop from a late medieval purse frame, cast in copper alloy. All that survives of the purse is the loop, cast integrally to the upper part of the shank. The loop itself has been infilled with a sheet of copper alloy, so there is only a small oval aperture in the loop. The metal is pitted and is a light greyish-green colour. Similar purse loops can be seen in the Medieval Catalogue (1967), p167, Fig: 52.
