Tsuba dont look too old, mid-late 1800,s maybe, crisp edges around Hitsu-ana, general look of the iron.

 

My eyesights not brilliant, but get the impression its not inlay (so to speak) but gold and silver colour surface decoration added at a later date, to spice up a plain tsuba .

 

Hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in with a better answer, you did say "anyone" ? ;-)

Best
