That's a colonial shoe buckle. Killer! And a complete on at that. I have dreams about finding them, but so far it has not happened.

Draped Bust and shoe buckle, that's a place you NEED to go hunt some more.

I believe the shields are from a horse bridle, like rosettes.

Well done sir.

Great colonial/post-colonial finds you nabbed there and congrats! The shoe buckle is the best of the finds though.
