someone on another forum said the following about the large buckle
That Batwing Buckle is probably a British, or possibly French, Sword Cross Plate Buckle.

It is Revolutionary War Period.....nice!

Sweet relics and coin Dave. I just saw that a Eureka leather suspender appears in the 1897 Sears catalogue. |:cheering:
