That’s a nice Coral and Turquoise chip inlay belt. That started about the 70s. I tried to zoom in on the Hallmark and couldn’t see it clearly enough to be able to look anything up. Welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy your belt.

Thank you. I am looking to sell it but I need to know what it is and its value. I have some other nice pieces. I inherited them years ago.

Like @Islandmomma said, it’s a nice turquoise and coral chip inlay belt; possibly Navajo made. It would not have been made earlier than 1970, when this type of inlay was first invented by Tommy Singer (this doesn’t appear to be his hallmark). We really need a much closer up and clearer picture of the hallmark, can’t even tell what it is from your photo.
Many of us here are not comfortable giving $ value, because we’re not expert appraisers.

For price research, put good, clear pics into Google Lens/Images and turn up comparables. And check Sold listings on eBay of similar things. Check that the scale of your pieces is the same as what you turn up–belts with smaller pieces won’t necessarily bring the same money as larger versions.
Also, have you checked that it’s sterling silver?

The only person I’ve seen use a similar font is Federico Jimenez (Mexico). That being said, chip inlay is not his style.

Jeronimo Fuentes has a Very similar hallmark to Frederico and he does enamel inlay. I don’t think that would be his style either.
