Roman copper alloy buckle plate
Plate complete with the loop of the buckle, only missing the pin. The decoration is the same as Chapman Sd01 (main central element of the design comprises three rectangular blocks of leaf ornament, flanked by a border of copper alloy with small triple lobe projections toward the edge of the plate) but with the addition of a transverse moulding at the hinge end. On the back there are two studs near the buckle and one stud at the other end.
