This US shoulder belt plate was affixed to the front of the shoulder belt for the infantry cartridge box. It features the spread-winged eagle design. Brass face is smooth and retains fine detail.

In very good “dug” condition. Recovered at Gettysburg by local relic hunter Al Flickinger. [jet][ph:L]
