Found another buckle...is it old?

Hi all,

Found another buckle on a 1700s property. May not be old. I tried doing my research on it using a handbook but couldn’t seem to find anything. Is it old?

Looks reasonably old. My best guess early 19th century. They were used a very, very long time.

Thanks! Is there something that stands out to you that says early 1800s? Or are modern buckles made like this today?
