I googled revolutionary war lions head buckle and found this.
This one is a little different but maybe it will get you on the right track

It is an early British buckle half from a sword belt. They used these right up into the 1870s at least. Very cool find, would be amazing if you found the rest!!
 

That's a great find!!! Congrats!
 

Thank you so much every one, I'm so excited about this find. I also picked up a button that is convex and has 3 cannons on it. I looked it up and turns out it's a royal artillery button from 1790-1802. I have lots of old cellar holes mins from my front door. I'm very lucky.
 

Wow very very nice finds !
 

Nice, now go find the other half.:icon_thumleft:
