Vintage GAR Grand Army of the Republic Sterling Silver Eagle Belt Buckle-114 gms

Description

Vintage Grand Army of the Republic Sterling Silver Eagle Belt Buckle, GAR Fraternal Belt Buckle.   This solid sterling silver belt buckle is in good condition with some discoloration.  I have not found any other GAR sterling silver belt buckles like this, but I'm assuming it was made before the GAR dissolved in 1956.  It is stamped on the back: G.A.R, Sterling and CY.   The buckle measures 3 1/8" x 2" and weighs 114 grams or 4 ounces.  It will accommodate a 1 1/2" belt or smaller.  The front is beautifully made with an American eagle holding an olive branch & four arrows.  The border has 13 stars and a shield with two more olive branches.  It's a cool vintage sterling silver belt buckle for any Grand Army of the Republic collector & just a great looking American eagle belt buckle!
