    My retail price on nickel is $5.50/lb, so you are looking at about $2.06 in value for that buckle.

    If its magnetic its nickel but it could also be nickel silver(no need to get excited) as it is just a form of yellow brass with no actual silver involved. also called german silver. look at plated items and you will see alot of stampings like NS and such.. Great question Happy

    Nickel would be magnetic especially pure nickel. If you scrap the ounces put it with your brass lol
