What does this mean?

Thank you for choosing Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

Your collection of belt buckles is of modest value, with each piece likely worth, on average, around $10 each - some worth a little more, some worth a little less. There are certainly collectors of belt buckles, including the ones you posses, but the higher value, more sought after belt buckles are ones made with precious metals (gold, silver, platinum) and adorned with stones (turquoise, mother-of-pearl, even diamonds and rubies). From what I can see, most of your belt buckles appear to be mass manufactured, not handcrafted, thus the modest value.

To check if any of your belt buckles are precious metal, they could be stamped with a hallmark or with a word such as "sterling" on the underside. If you find any that you suspect are made of a precious metal, I am happy to look at more photos and provide you with an additional estimate.

I am unable to decipher each belt buckle from the photos, to identify if, with certainty, there is a higher value buckle in the mix, but based on what I can see, I would suggest a closer look at the buckle that appears to be an eagle of inlaid stone on a mother-of-pearl background. If that is silver and indeed gemstone, it could be valued at $100+.

Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions. I'm happy to help!
