This Pattern 1826 eagle breast plate is meant for use on the baldric of the Model 1840 NCO sword.

The face of the plate is in very nice condition showing only minor wear from age and use. The right side of the plate has a small indentation causing it to be out of round. The surface has a light patina and may have been cleaned at one time. Details of the eagle stamping are good.

The reverse has 100% of the lead fill with two hooks and tongue formed of doubled wire. Face of the lead has an interesting period decoration of wandering hash marks mixed with some random letters.

Recovered at Stones River.  [ad] [ph:L]
