It is rare that a Navajo (Dine') concho belt of this age and quality come to the marketplace. As is evident by the construction of the belt, the conchos appear to have been on a smaller and narrower belt at one time. There are two conchos (one of which is loose) which are the same age as the other conchos but have a different yet similar design
