(14) This is a Civil War brass U. S. buckle, a dug piece. It has the paw hooks. Most of the items in this category from the collection were dug legally here in Central Virginia. It measures 3 1/4" by 2". Condition is as shown. I will be listing more items from this collection.  From a very large local well known Civil War collection I very recently purchased. This collection has been sitting since the 1980's.  Please ask questions if needed. Any white spots are camera flash reflections. Free Priority Mail shipping, U. S. addresses only, International shipping is not available. Since the Post Office is being slowed/shut down, the shipping time may vary. I always ship within one day of receiving payment, but transit times now vary widely, sometimes several days longer. Please bear this in mind, as I cannot control transit time..........The terms...I prefer payment within 2 days from end of auction. I pack very well, and do not charge anything extra as "add-ons". I either charge exact cost shipping, or a flat rate that usually costs you less than it takes for me to safely ship the item. Due to my geographic location, I will not ship Fed-Ex. I do not end auctions early. Please ask questions if needed, I am usually very prompt in my answers. I want you to have a simple and worry free transaction, as I take pride in being a professional. I have been selling on eBay for over 22 years now. I treat my customers as I would expect to be treated..
