I like it I'm sure someone here will be able to give you more info.

For the images to show using the Tinypic link... just put this [ img] and [ /img] around the front and back of the link address (remove the space I added after the [ on both) or just click the "Insert Image" button (the camera with the black edge) and they will appear and you can put your link address between them-

Also when you upload on tinypic choose the "message board" size option or the pic will be too large.

Hey DigginGuy, That's a sweet buckle. It has an Art Deco look to it, so I'm going with that time period. Nice find, Breezie

Thanks Breezie ,i was thinking about the time period myself and you confirmed it.
Most of the buckles i dig are not in as good as shape as this one ,it was down at about 8" with the ATpro
I love digging buckles ,my friends could care less but i would rather dig an old buckle than a stinkin Lincoln any day LOL

I think this buckle would have been used on a ladies dress, hat, or choker. It could have also gone on a man's watch fob leather strap.

As far as antique dog collars are concerned, you might be surprised what they looked like:

The type of Buckle shape was in use in the 17th century, but it could be more modern, depends on what it's made from.
