Dug this on Civil War battle field in Va

Maybe some kind of strap that went on a gun?
I don't know what it is, do you?

A buckle that probably went on a knapsack as it is adjustable.

Tournequet buckle, that's is what it is.
Great IDing. Good to see it's worth a couple of bucks.
But, I don't sell any of my Civil war relic.

Thanks to all....Roadquest
