EXCAVATED
UNION SWORD BELT PLATE With Wreath!
Approximately 2-1/8" x 3-1/4" this excavated
plate is very unusual in that it retains most of its original wreath!
The wreath was soldered on, and they are always gone on dug examples!
In great shape with tongue intact,
the back is un-numbered, so you should be able to find a belt keeper that
would look good with it.
Dug in Fauqueir County, Virginia.

that is stamped by it's maker "W.H. Smith / Brooklyn".
Also has a tape tag that indicates it was dug on the 20th of January in
1974! The tag also has the name "Burgess" but we really don't know
exactly who that refers to.... could be the digger, a property owner.
