I posted this in Today's find. I can't find much information. I believe it is a Chicago Police belt buckle from late 1800's (1880s???). Any info would be appreciated.


Thanks
Doug

I found something similar with a patent date on the back Dec. 16, 1879. I still haven't cleaned the front of it though to see if it says anything on the front. Nice find though.
 
Don't know anything about it but it looks awesome :thumbsup:

Sweet find!

Did you post it on the whattzit forum? Looks authentic, but there were many fantasy buckles with a multitude of designs back in the early 70's.
