Hi everyone… I found this with my metal detector… I have no idea what it is and was hoping someone on here may be able to identify it for me…. I was detecting a site around where a house stood in the mid 1800s… Thanks

Old form of a hair pin

I suppose could be an old hair pin, but it could be an old belt buckle, likely Victorian era. Nice find and thanks for sharing.

Pretty sure it's a suspender belt clip.

Thanks for the input…my original thought when I found it was some kind of hair adornment… now I’m leaning more towards a stock buckle… pretty sure it isn’t from suspenders as it is quite delicate… thanks again everyone… I will keep searching for something definitive

Wellll...

Due to the fragile nature of it as the OP stated... i will stay with 1 part of a 2 part sash buckle.

Thanks… now having seen a picture of one almost identical, I do agree on it being a suspenders buckle
