Hello
I do not understand, spoons or buckles??

Engraved M1 clips, Garand or carbine and I have not seen an engraved clip?

Hello Bruce
The buckles date 1880ish to 1887 or so
The spoons are probably turn of the century to the 20's 30's maybe even later??
I am not that up on collectible spoons as these are the only ones I have collected, so if anyone else can shed some light it would be appreciated

Stuff like military issue buckles can be worth a very big pile of money.
Never understood why people collect spoons. Or Coke bottles, plates or anything like that. Had an old aunt who collected spoons as souvenirs of places she'd or her friends had been. Didn't get it.

This one is posted on e bay. Not sure if the asking price is the actual value but it is pricey! https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-BATTLE-CHICKAMAUGA-CIVIL-WAR-TRAPDOOR-SPRINGFIELD-RIFLES-STERLING-SPOON/372649836787?hash=item56c3a940f3:g:6ucAAOSw9GdciGC-
