Item: US Waist Belt Buckle - Arrow Type Hooks
Construction: Stamped thin sheet brass with raised letters "US". Rear with solder fill and arrow type attachment hooks.
Condition: Very good, excavated. Its brass front, with its distinctive tall letters, has a dark olive-green patina. The rim is fully intact with no issues. The rear solder is complete. While the two belt attachment arrow hooks are present, the tongue is missing and is likely why the buckle was left behind. The plate has no cracks, bends or repairs.
Recovered: Wilderness, VA area.
Approximate size: 56 x 86 mm.
Comments: This US waist belt buckle will be an excellent addition to any excavated Civil War buckle, plate, or general relic collection.
