Federal 1851 Pattern Waist Belt Plate
Description: Here is an excavated waist belt plate that features a fully cast eagle and wreath. This one is missing the tongue and keeper bar and is probably why it was discarded. The body of the plate is a little wavy towards the bottom but still retains a nice dug/uncleaned patina.
Measures: 49.5mm x 78mm
Recovered: Approximately 5 Miles South of Hagerstown, Maryland. Pennington Farm. This area was used heavily throughout the war.
