Anyone know the age range of this buckle ? The button has no back , rusted away...... It is a train on the front found near RR tracks . Anyone recognize this button ? IMG_1288.JPGIMG_1289.JPGIMG_1290.JPG

Your button has a locomotive on it, probably an overalls button, mid 1900's? The buckle was plates at one time, with an applied horseshoe on it, from the looks of the solder. A western motif. Cool finds, Sub 8-)
 

Cool finds. I just dug a similar train button recently. That buckle is pretty cool too. Love relics along with my coins.:icon_thumleft:
 

Congrats on pulling a "first" with the intact buckle!
