Buckle up

[ncsuwolf]

Spent about 45 min this evening at a spot close to the house. A bunch of farm/house trash, but a few decent items.

Roller buckle is probably best find, followed by the brass # tag.

Also found some sort of clasp/snap that attached to some sort of fabric.

I now have found 6 (4 today) what I initially thought were knapsack buckles. Today the 4 I found were in the midst of a bunch of lump coal, assuming where they had their coal pile. Does anyone know if buckles like this were used for bundling up bags of coal?

And to top the hunt off, you have to have clad and Lincoln memorials.

I have a couple of WWII tool rolls that have those same buckles.
