You may want to turn on the Macro feature of your camera, or hold it a little farther away.

Well... I'm only going of pictures and the fact that you are in New England...

But I'd feel safe saying it's a 18th Century Shoe buckle...

As shown above these 'shuttle' shaped framed buckles date to 1720-1790, I will chance my arm and say post 1750.

...and hesitate a second for the lens to autofocus before completely pushing the button.
