1877 belt buckle

[gulfcoast850]

Hello there! Was digging through a box of my old belongings and found about twenty silver quarters and a belt buckle my grandfather gave me a long time ago. The buckle says 1877 with a indian head on it
I searched online and found remakes of it that has a stamp on the back...but tbe back of mine is smooth and seems to be original to me. What you guys think?

I've been doing the coin thing for about a year now and know nothing about this. Has the coin front to it and i can't seem to find anything online about it. Seen the remake of it with stamped info on the backside. Curious if this maybe the original. Was sure i was going to have more input by now with all the knowledge on here. Been on this site many times over the year fascinated with peoples finds.

Thanks buddy! Wasn't look for a big money find, just curious on what it was. Looked cool but knew nothing about it.
