🥇 BANNER Once in a Lifetime Find!

[vadigger89]

I went out digging on January 1, 2015 and made my best find ever, a Virginia Tongue in perfect condition! What a way to start the new year! I don't know if I will ever top this one, my hands were shaking sitting there holding it. You just never know what is coming out of the ground next, I sure wasn't expecting to ever find a Virginia Tongue but it happened. A memory that will last a lifetime. Thanks for looking and happy hunting.

I can see it is a really awesome find but as asked before what is it? Is it a belt buckle of some sort?
