Daft The Batter with picture of Richard Daft.. Sporting. Buckle. Plated brass cricket buckle. 45 mm diameter. 1860s
Good. (N/A). A piece missing to the right. Still has the loop to the rear, but the clasp would have been where the piece is missing. The central part showing Richard Daft is an insert that is securely held in place. Some of the gold plating remains quite distinct. The rim is split where the piece is missing. Some outer folded edge bends and dints. Richard Daft (2 November 1835 – 18 July 1900) was an English cricketer. He was one of the best batsmen of his day, the peak of his first-class career (which lasted from 1858 to 1891) being the 1860s and early 1870s.
