Me too, I don't think I have any large intact of this type. The plough distroys them.

Sweet buckle and love that green patina on the IH!

Tanz that's a great shoe buckle. My favorite relic for sure. I've been lucky to find about 15 of them. 4 or 5 complete

I've been working a colonial site for 3-4 months. Lots of great period finds but oddly enough not one buckle. Not even a partial if I remember correctly. Would love to have one of yours
