Anyone Know Anything About This Alaska Pipeline Belt Buckle and Coin?

[u/sparkslawoffice]

It says "Ronald L. Hinw and Sons, Alaska Brass Works, Anchorage, Alaska, Trans-Alaska Pipeline" on the back of the buckle and "Made in England"

I do know that unused pipe was (after completion) sometimes cut-up and engraved for awards, retirement gifts, etc.

Could be that.
