    Re: A bit of brass

    BuckleBoy, thanks for the reply. Do you happen to have any in your collection or a period image for me to look at?

    I attached the front view of this as well. I suppose the tongue would go through the hole, correct? How does the belt attach? Was there a loop which is no longer there?

    You are probably looking at 1860's-1880ish.We find the larger variety in earlier(1850)sites but from my experience,of where I have found the small ones the dates given should be a ball park
