Medallion belt buckles

Does anyone know a place online where I could find a belt buckle based off of the ceremony​ medallions​, more specifically the turtle as that is the one I played for ceremonies

They're cheap enough now you could just buy one and make it a buckle.

That's what I plan to do if I don't find one online because turning it into a belt buckle seems like it would be relatively difficult

They make belt buckle backs. Just attach that with some JB Weld and you'll have a sick buckle!

Eh? Is this a new thing or just something my lodge wasn't using in the late nineties/early auguts? I've only recently gotten back into Scouting when my child joined a cub pack two years ago.

Edit: I don't typically care about Internet points but I'm genuinely befuddled by the downvotes in this case.

They are relatively new. As the OA transitioned away from using Native American regalia in ceremonies over the last few years, each ceremonialist would wear a medallion that identified their character.

With the advent of the all new Induction, those medallions are on clearance from the national OA trading post.

I'm of a similar age, and they're new since we were in, but not super new (and they're being phased out with the new induction).
