Some of the old buckles posted lately make me wonder on their history. That one is really old if I AM GUESSING RIGHT.
 

Looks like a common horse tack buckle made after the tariff act of 1891. Could be much newer, into the 1950s. I have purchased new brass buckles marked "England" in the 1970s and they will still be found with such a mark today. I like the little indian which looks like it may be a neckerchief slide.
 

Yeap, horse harness buckle, note the off-set bar for thick leather.
