MILITIA / CONFEDERATE CLIPPED-CORNER BELT PLATE WITH INITIALS

$295.00 SOLD

Quantity Available: None

Item Code: 2022-392

Excavated “clipped corner” belt plate.  Nice brown-green mixed patina.  Retains good shape as most sheet brass plates were susceptible to bends and folds.  This specimen exhibits only the slightest bends and one small crack (3/4”) on bottom edge.  The initials “J M T” in large block letters are finely scratched on the face. Back of plate shows three solder marks from original belt hooks. A minor scuff or “diggers kiss” is also on the back.  A very nice example of this fragile style of belt plate.  [jet] [ph:L]
