Silver coin fragment. A small part of a silver hammered coin which has been sharply folded at least twice into a tiny billet. The finder kindly suggests this may have been a cut half or quarter penny short or voided long cross penny, which could imply the period 11180-1278. The mass, however, points to a value of less than one half farthing for the fragment. Suggested date: Medieval, 1180-1278 Length: 6.1mm, Width: 5mm, Weight: 0.12gms

Copper alloy probable buckle plate fragment. A trapezoid sheet metal fragment, straight-sided, with a large [diameter 4.5mm] if slightly ragged hole at its broader end, where it is broken. This hole may be the end of a slot or hole for the putative buckle pin and is larger than a rivet-hole. Two rivets of diameter 3mm pass through the plate on either side of this hole. There is a diagonal row of three low bosses at the middle of the plate, raised by stamping from behind. Before this, a rocker-work pattern of two adjacent saltires had been added to its display side. Close-spaced diagona…

Copper alloy strap end. A strap end of composite construction with two plates of thickness 0.9 and 0.4mm with a central probably forked spacer plate between them whose tip projects at the outer ogival end. The inner end is lightly engrailed. A rivet of diameter 1.7mm passes through the inner end to attach the plates to each other and the strap. A woven fabric strap remains preserved between the plates – the finder kindly notes he had kept the object wet to preserve what was at first thought to be a leather strap, as the find-spot was also damp. The use of a textile strap may deno…
