Noor Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hello all, I have here one US Naval Academy belt buckle from circa 1900 period. This piece do not fit into my collection and therefore I would like to move it on. But can someone please help me with the information - how common/rare it is and what it can be worth aprox. Thanking you in advance, Timo aka Noor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I graduated from the Naval Academy, and we had no such belt buckles then. I've never seen one. It looks like a swordbelt buckle. By my time, we were using the standard USN officer's belt/buckle. 1900 sounds about right for a date. The Academy was founded in 1845, and we surely wouldn't have started out with bling like that. Congratulations, Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
