Hello Everyone.....

Found this buckle on a known CW site in NW AR. Would anyone know if this is a CW era buckle and if so, know what it is?
This was found on a hilltop area where it was reported calvary horses were stationed. My buddy found a heart bridal rosette at this same spot. Any id on the other objects would be great help also. :icon_thumright:

Thanks windage :icon_thumright:
Ur post gave me a chuckle this morning.
I have thought the same thing :tard:
 

It dosn't look like a buckle to me. But maybe a stap adjuster for suspenders. I'm probally wrong though. Have you taken it to a local relic shop and had an expert look at it?
 

Apparently, the Original Poster (Bagman13) is unaware of the What-Is-It forum here at TreasureNet. That exact form of iron buckle has been repeatedly identified as a latter-1800s-to-20th-century Horse-harness buckle in the What-Is-It forum.

"Free, Friendly Advice": civil war relic diggers will usually get better results by posting their Can-you-ID questions in the What-Is-It forum than here in the civil war artifacts forum.
 

I found one similar in civil war battle ground and I can’t figure out what it is either.. maybe went on a horse as a strap but I do not know for sure.
