Solid Silver Shoe Buckle Fragment & Brass Mystery

[Ahab8]

My one and only short hunt this year. I found my first silver shoe buckle fragment. Damn I wish this relic was complete. I’ve got piles of shoe buckles and have never even sniffed a fragment until this hunt. Maybe next time.

Nice finds Ahab. The silver buckle fragment is such a tease, Too bad the rest wasn't there. I have no idea what your other item is ...interesting! Hope someone else can ID.

Part of a gate slide bolt?

Maybe the rest is there. Good to hear from you again.

The unknown item appears to be a splicing sleeve for electrical wire. It looks like it has crimps from a crimping tool on the sides.
