I found this buckle piece in a field in Luxembourg.
Most of the stuff I've found in this area dates to around 1650-1960.
Its made of either copper or bronze.

I believe it to be medieval, more specifically from 1250-1350 according to this website.

I hope I am correct in assuming this but would like to hear confirmation considering I don't find very many medieval finds.

I'm sure one of the Brits will chime in to give you a thumbs-up. I'm American. What do I know about Medieval...?

If you found it in Pennsylvania or Connecticut, we'd be telling you it's a drawer pull. :icon_scratch: ??? :laughing7:

Its a 13th - 14th C medieval buckle. (as stated) Most are 14th C.

i would have guessed a drawer pull, due to the nipple on one end
