Well just from the patina it looks modern. Looks like it clamped to something on its four corners. Maybe a belt buckle face. But very modern

It would help to know what type of metal. Brass or pot metal? Clean it with soft brush and water and look for markings. You may need to soak it for a while.

looks very much the style of a confederate belt buckle i had when i was a teenager like 30 ish years ago , but mine was brass and mine had the loop one 1 end not both, and there was a hook on the back to go into the holes.
yours looks more like it is made for decoration like a sash for scouts or a belt would thread thru the ends .
