Well...at least it's not clad...

hello, as you might know, i have been finding nothing but clad for a few days, however, today i found a buckle. it is kinda crusty and has dots all around the rim. It also has these leaf like thingy between the two rows of dots. i also found .56 cents in clad. OK for 45 minutes at a park I've hit pretty hard. It's hard to get at the clad when every other hit is a can hit by a mower (i swear the janitor is doing it on purpose to get back at me). I also got the definitive location of a few cellar holes and the general location of many. I will try and get to one of them this weekend. At least the trash there will be more interesting.

Any info of the buckle's age, it was found at a park that dates to the 50's, however, the area is older.

Thanks, HH
