✅ SOLVED Unidentified Millitary buckle or sword plate

[PIP]

This was found at an early 1800's home sight in upstate New York. There was also an early military encampment close by from the early 1800's. I believe its an infantry buckle or sword plate. Is anyone able to date this and provide any more info on it?

Looks like a match to me, the backs are pretty much identical. I would still love to find out which state militia its from.
