🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Type of strap buckle?

[Nathan W]

Found last year( I hope I haven't already posted this)

It has two small little teeth on the sides. What's left of them. I've found a match online but no luck with ID. Found in old settlement area colonial / civil war if that helps. Maybe saddle girth strap?

How did you find it with that ward patent? Did it say what it was used for ?

Eiler catalog (on line). The Ward Patent was a different style, show just above yours in the catalog.

The one on the right is the Ward’s Patent model of a Back Band Hook.
