An incomplete Medieval copper alloy buckle plate dating to cAD 1200 - 1500. It is a rectangular piece of metal, folded, with a rectangular pin hole cut into the fold and which is looped to hold a pin bar, which in this case is still in place.

A single off-centre rivet holds the two sides of the plate together.  Dimensions: 13.0mm in length; 10.5mm in width; weight: 1.20g.

An incomplete Medieval copper alloy buckle plate dating to perhaps c AD 1300 - 1400.
