US Belt Buckle

SOLD

Item: Excavated US Belt Buckle
Construction: Stamped thin sheet brass with raised letters "US".  Rear with solder fill and arrow type attachment hooks.
Condition: Good, excavated. Its brass front has a Culpeper yellow soil covered green-brown patina with the stamped letters "US". There is significant rim damage to the lower left portion of the plate and also a small portion at the opposite end at the rim near the upper serif of the letter "S". The rear solder is mostly present but has surface wear and is missing in the area from the rim to the back end of the arrow hooks. All three attachment hooks are present and the plate has not been repaired.
Recovered: Brandy Station, VA
Approximate size:  53 x 82 mm.
Comments:  If you prefer that war torn appearance, then this plate will be an excellent addition to any excavated Civil War plate or general relic collection.
