Unusual CW buckle

[diggervet]

Found these CW items yesterday despite the heat. I think this is an officers sash buckle, but any other ideas would be welcome. Unfortunately it was broken when I dug it. Also found a nice floral button, an 1833 IH and a couple bullets. All in all a good day.

It will be intresting to know its origin.

Diggervet,
Not sure but the buckle is of a rather light weight material and this is why you are probably thinking, "sash" but I believe most officers tied the sash. I could be wrong but possibly from a medical officers gear?

I looked for over an hour this morning trying to find any info on that buckle, and couldn't find a thing. Where is Cap't? He can usually ID the CW stuff readily.

Anywho....fantastic find!!! 8) Congrats!!! Nana

Unfortunately I made a typo, it should have been an 1883, not 1833,...Sorry!
