Might be a belt buckle hard to tell from seeing the pics on my cheap phone looks really cool though

Possibly part of a buckle. I'd guess around 1900-1910.

I really don't think it is a belt buckle. The head is orientated wrong for a typical belt buckle.
Also, the back doesn't look like it would have attached to a belt.

I appreciate the thoughts and insight. Thank you.
The mystery in my eyes continues.

Yup .. half of a two piece sash buckle. The other half would have had a hook that would mate up with the loop on yours.

It probably would have looked something like this:

I agree with the crowd that is saying buckle. Nice find.
