Hello Guys and Gals. I am new to tresurenet and what better way to introduce myself than asking for some expierenced buckle guys there opinions. I dug this buckle today and have no clue where to start looking for the symbol so I can id it. It is a Shepherds staff, sword in a crown with 3 rings connecting. If you guys have any idea what it is and how old it is please let me know. Thanks in advance and thanks for letting me join up.

Darn right this is a banner find. Not many I.O.O.F. belt plates out there. Especially dug plates. Great Job Bud. Very nice find indeed. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Wow :o :o..You guys work fast. I searched for hours last night trying to figure this one out. So is it a good find?? I am going to have to do some reading looks like today. Man I can't thank you guys enough. This looks like something i should hold onto. I live in Natchez, Mississippi and that is where this came from. It was about 8 inches down in the ground. Looks like I am going to have to go back and do more digging to see what else I can find. You guys think it is worth alot?

P.S. What is a BANNER FIND???

The Banner is the "flashing pictures" at the top of the home page.

Next you will be receiving an Invoice from the members for the Identification of your item. :evil5:

How much should we charge him?? (Just a joke. Tony is the only one we send bills to, because he pays them.) :icon_jokercolor:

Ok! Great Id on the buckle! now there is one thing that puzzles me!!!! why is there a US shield on the back, but it does not show up on the front!!! Is that the Odd part of Odd Fellows???

The company that made the buckle probably used the shield as their logo. If he cleans that area he "might" find some information.

It's worth what someone will pay for it. If you are seriously interested though just keep an eye on it and/or bid. Chances are it will go up though...and possibly dramatically in the last remaining seconds(literally). I just put it on my "my ebay" watch list, it ends tomorrow, so we'll soon see.
