Appears to be one of the rarely encountered "Plausteek" buckles. Those are tough to find, especially with a metal detrector.

Hmmm......Your first thoughts were actually closer, when this buckle find was attributed to be similar to something "colon & all"

Wow Scott! That's one of the earliest buckles ever made out of Bakelite!
I've seen them sell on eBay for . . . well . . . OK, I've never seen them on eBay,
but yours could be the first!

Good luck with it!

Southern California has seen countless Civil War battles.........so what's this "can't be" thought?

Heck, there's probably been more CW battles fought in Burbank than there ever was in the Ol' Dominion state.
