Condition:
this is a pre-owned late nineteenth century sterling nurse’s belt buckle that has been worn. It has light wear from normal, gentle use – no breaks, touch-ups or repairs. The patina of the silver is shiny as it’s recently been hand polished – but not overly so, it has the soft glow of antique sterling; the hinge works smoothly and the clasp opens and closes properly.
