nice little buckle

Post by yogib »

found this about 20 foot away from that other object we have no idea what it is.

looking at uk finds its a, s shaped belt hook, apparently we shipped a load of these over for the soldiers in the american civil war? but could aso be from the 16th centry as a sword belt.....
