Looking into it for a friend of mine.Sorry about blurry picture and no measurements, I was kind of in a hurry..But it is probably about 3inch's long,brass,and looks to be some kind of civilian belt buckle.Not sure how to date it?

Looks mid to late 1800's. Most likely used as a strap or harness buckle for horse tack from that period. Always love to pull some brass!

The back of the buckle's narrow end has two flanges (ridges), which kept the buckle's tongue centered on the bar. That characteristic is not seen on mid-1800s (or earlier) buckles that are shaped like yours... so I believe it dates anytime from the late-1800s through the 20th Century. But because Civilian-usage buckles are not my specialty in relic-study, I of course could be wrong, and if so, I'm sure somebody here will post a correction.
