Rare silver knee buckle, Updated with cleaner Pics.

[mainer]

Went back and hit the field I have been diggin the last few days. It was a slow night tonight. But I did manage this Buckle that I thought was a brooch til I got it home. This is probably the best buckle I have ever dug. All in all Im happy with tonights digs. Also posted it in the what is it forum, to try an find out exactly how old it is.


Heres a couple new pics of the buckle cleaned up a little better. This thing is a bear to clean. Been usuing a toothpic. That rust comes off hard.

Re: Silver knee buckle

Thanks all! I guess this is rarer then I originally thought, Crusader is digging up some good info on the what is it forum.

Re: Silver knee buckle

Jesse, after reading Crusaders and others comments on the what is it section, it is pretty clear you have made an amazing discovery here. This would seem to me a definite banner find and probably has a fair amount of value.. Easily one of my top 3 favorite finds this year by anyone on the forum.
