Nice find. Are you saying its solid silver? Whats the back look like?[/QUOTE

Not solid silver.....pure silver would bend and break to easy. This is silver applied to a brass frame.....great workmanship


I didn't clean the back yet.....my hands wont stop shaking....haha

Solid silver(coin silver) buckles are out there. Just extremely hard to find. Applied silver still not an easy find either so congrats
