Thanks everyone, I just wish I could date it...I have looked under everything from harness to martingale and just cant find it. The area I am hunting has thrown out alot of 1850's items ....so I dont know.....I think its not that old because of the eagle style.....I cleaned it up with WD40 and it looks great
Gypsy, Cool find!! My cousin found two buckles with three places for leather, within 20 feet of one another, but check this out; one was iron and the other brass! By the way, neither had a center design in them, but were somewhat ornate. Nothing at all as beautiful as yours!!! Great Find!!! Great hunting and good luck!! Regards, Richard.
