      I am fairly certain the buckle is from Turkey. The military ones I have seen had only the star and crescent.

      Thanks, Dr.e13----appreciate the message....I sort of thought the same, but wanted to hear from someone.....yours, Philip

      I spoke too soon. You have Shriner's belt buckle.

      Could the top be a Eagle or a bird at least of some sort.
    5. Dr.e13, 12 years ago
      It is a scimitar. A type of curved mideastern sword. It is a Shriner's emblem.
      Minus the scimitar the buckle would be Turkish or Ottoman.
