moonhare<p>Shown is what I believe is a buckle from horses’ tack. The prong is iron, and rusted, but the main frame is undoubtedly brass (non-magnetic and shows as such under a scratch). </p><p>The dog randomly dug this up in the backyard, in an area we just cleared of brush. I could ask my sister if she recalls losing this: we had over 30 horses at one time, but don’t think she’d recall as that was 50 years ago. Happily there were no bones present, so it wasn’t a burial site.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/horses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>horses</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/tack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tack</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ThingsFound" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThingsFound</span></a></p>
