If this is a horse tack buckle does anyone know what part should this buckle be part of a bridle or something else?

Its very hard to tell with these small buckles as they were used on horse tack as well as knapsacks and other items. Does it have a roller on the end?

One of the things that helps a lot in Id'ing items is what was found in the area. If I'm digging 3 ringers and yankee I buttons then chances are it from a cartridge box or knapsack if it has a roller. If I'm digging spencer and burnside bullets and yankee C button then chances are its cavalry related. If found in a field is plow horse or mule relsated (most of the time)
