Medieval or Post Medieval white metal buckle, 25mm in diameter and 5mm thick. The object is in good condition with a silver/grey patina and weighs 2.19 grams. The object resembles a scalloped annular brooch and has a curved upper surface and a flat underside. Each curve has a small knop protruding from it and it has an irregular thickness, suggesting poor casting?
