This Federal belt plate is of the regulation 1839 pattern and was recovered in central Virginia. Constructed in the die-struck and rolled brass method, the brass accoutrement’s face shows a very clear “US”. Face has an attractive even brown patina. The edge remains in perfect condition with just one small “push” from the back. Lead filled back retains 100% of lead fill. No maker’s mark. This is the style with “arrow” hooks; all three hooks remain. Digger’s name written on back. A nice relic in excellent “dug” condition.  [jet]
