Rare Methodist Guards Victorian crown belt buckle from Newfoundland

Description

A rare white metal waist belt clasp (belt buckle) with Victorian style crown to the Methodist Guards. In September 1900, the Methodist Church in Newfoundland created the Epworth Guards at St. John's. By December, the group had about 60 members and was renamed the Methodist Guards. Many of their members went on to serve with the Newfoundland Regiment in WWI. There is a slight dig in the badge at the 12 o'clock position but otherwise it is in very good condition with minor signs of wear overall.
I will send an invoice at the end of the auction with the correct postage for your destination.
Buyer pays US for registered mail outside the UK. Postage within the UK is . Registered airmail is much safer since it allows tracking of packages and compensation in the event of loss. For high value items and certain destinations with unreliable postal systems I will only ship under registered airmail.
I am always willing to combine postage on multiple wins.
Please note that unless registered mail is used it is not possible to track an item if it goes missing in the post. This greatly increases the risk that an item can get permanently lost.
