ARTIFACT: This is a United States Navy officer's belt buckle from the Spanish-American War era. The Spanish-American war began in February 1898 after the USS Maine exploded at Havana Harbor. Popular opinion at the time blamed the Spanish for the Maine's demise although the evidence was far from conclusive. The center of the buckle shows an eagle perched upon an anchor in relief and either side of it is an ornate leaf and acorn design.

VINTAGE: Circa Spanish American War (1898).

SIZE: Approximately 3-1/4" in width (as shown) and 1-13/16" in height.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Gilt brass.

ATTACHMENT: Interlocking buckle with loop and prong.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a Spanish-American War era United States Navy collection that we will be listing more of over the next few months. ebay PBJL05 LAAEX12/13

CONDITION: 7+ (Very Fine+): The buckle has some light wear.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
