OLD BUCKLE

[KILLER Tn]

I found this old buckle and button today. Any ideas how old it may be ?

The button has an E on the front , the back is very shiny.

Looks just like the one I found a couple of years ago, found it at an old fire tower that was biult by the CCC's in the 1930's So I would guess it's around that old.

If that piece is lead backed, then it is likely a bridle rosette.

Now--the button's back looks like Silver. Is the front the same color? We need better photos of the button--both sides. It could be an "Engineers" button--or it could simply be a personalized dress coat button with an initial.

If that piece is lead backed, then it is likely a bridle rosette.

Mine isn't lead backed, I did think it was something to do with horses gear when I found it, but on the back side off center, there does look like there is a small pin sticking out.

They don't neccessary have to be lead backed. We need pictures of the reverse for proper IDs?

Looks like a horse bridle rosette to me. But Buckles O'malley beat me to it. Nice find.
