Some type of Buckle, looking for age!-SOLVED

[rocdoc]

I'm new to the metal detecting circuit and today found what appears to be an old buckle, probably shoe?? It does not stick to a magnet. Seems to have the same general patina as my older nickels and dimes. Very thin, pressed as the back concavity. I found this thing out in the middle of nowhere, no signs of habitation. Gets me curious as to the age. I did find just below the surface, but here in Central Texas, we don't get a lot of soil development. Really just want to know what it is and how old. Thanks a bunch and happy hunting!

Hey Jeff!


That is a real nice suspender clip for sure.
For some reason I really like to dig them.

Hope all is well.
