George III - In 1801, when George III renounced his title as King of France under the Treaty of Paris, the French quartering was removed. The arms of England then occupied the first and fourth quarters, the arms of Scotland the second, and the arms of Ireland the third. For Hanover, there was an escutcheon overall surmounted by the electoral bonnet, which was replaced in 1816 by a Royal Crown (when Hanover became a Kingdom).

bit confused, there is a different crown type over the centre shield, & no crown in the centre of Shaun's :dontknow:

The guy I just heard back from says it could date a little later than 1816, but is pre 1837, so that could account for the slight difference. He's an expert from the UK.

Great Finds Man! I thought that "plate" looked too light weight to be a Cartridge Box plate and was thinking a Boss bit myself... The reason being, myself and an old hunting partner found a British War of 1812 Cartridge Box Plate here in Virginia about 3 years ago that had the Lion of England surmounted by the Crown and it was MUCH heavier than that Boss and had heavy attachments on the back. It ended up being a scarce variety and fetching us a pretty penny; near $10,000 dollars. Here's some photos of it below:
