It is interesting how they loved their cricket. Your buckle is the fourth variation of cricket buckles I've seen. We are always finding different bits'n'pieces and I enjoy finding them as much as do the gold. Regards kim Attachment (1) (in reply to IRISH) Post #: 2

I noticed your buckle is very clean and well presented, hmmm! I will have to get my act together, lol. This photo is not very clear. Attachment (1) (in reply to Kim) Post #: 3
