how old do you think this buckle is?

I know you cannot judge the age of something by the depth it is in the ground but I had to dig halfway to china to get this one.....lol

was probably more like 11-12 inches, how old do you think it is?

In other words. It's a deep old buckle

May be a chape rather than a buckle, nice find looks victorian 19th century from the letter style.

My guess is 40s or 50s. I know the gothic lettering makes it look older, but the style of buckle (size and attachments) and width of belt is much more in sync with 40s-50s. It might be as early as the 20s or 30's but during that time suspenders were more typical than belts.
