Civil War Hat Buckle??

Could any of these be forager cap / Kepi buckles? I apologize the quarters are the best I could do for scale since my calipers are broken. Thanks for looking.

It doesn't look like it. The kepi buckles were paper thin brass and had a center bar. Your buckles do look old enough to be CW period however.

I'm no expert when it comes to US CW relics, but I do find a ton of horse harness and civilian buckles.
To me, most of these look to be either horse tack or civilian related.
