“Dug” relic is in very good condition. Stamped brass face with typical eagle motif. Light wear to the raised areas. Oxidation around the rim from lead backing. Back has 100% lead fill with two complete wire loops.

This plate is for use on the shoulder sling of the regulation infantry cartridge box.

This specimen was recovered at Gettysburg long ago by a local resident, Al Flickinger who owned property on the back side of Little Round Top. In good, “relic” condition, typical of relics recovered in the 1970s or earlier.    [jet][ph:L]
