What was this a buckle for?
score:3
Accepted answer
The difference seems to be mainly in the connections, and the 'puppy paw hooks' would be an indication that what you have is the belt buckle.
The other item is called a 'box plate', and has a different back, with a pair of loops to attatch it to the cartridge boxes. (Several images on google images)
This website relicman.com has good images of both items, front and back.
