There are three very small nicks along top edge. Back has types label that reads "C.S.A. regulation buckle. Type worn by Western Confederate troops . From the field of Corinth, Miss. Secured in 1952 from Mrs. B. F. Worsham of Corinth whose family found this plate on the battlefield years ago." Page from Mr. Gavin's log book comes with the item.
