So wet but the temps were right to hunt.
The buckle looks brass. Is this horse tack?
How old?
The button is cool but I don't think is old.
Fleur De Lees and a rook on the front. The back shank fell apart during cleaning.
No inscription or makers mark anywhere.
Is the button old?

Also found the 64 Jefferson at the coin star.

Clad for the day is $.72

Nice old buckle that button is sweet Well done!!!!!
 

Cool buckle! :occasion14:
 

That's an interesting button. While many fashion/blazer buttons have crests on them, I do not recall any having a diagonal cross ribbon like yours has. Your button , to me, looks suspiciously much like a button from a learning institution.

Nice finds. Your buckle does appear to be a generic horse harness buckle.
 

Nice!!! Congrats!!!
