This relic belt plate consists of the center part of the plate only. The entire border as well as both posts and tongue on the reverse are gone.
The face has a dark and scaly appearance with most of the letters “SNY” still visible. There is missing material at the top of the “S” and between the “N” where one of the posts broke away. There is also a rectangular like slot in the middle of the letter “Y” where the tongue rotted away.
Most of the lead remains on the reverse.
Recovered off the coast of North Carolina. [AD] [ph:L]
