🥇 BANNER Civil War era bone saw frame "amputation saw"

[j.d. in the usa]

Hi all hope you are having a great 2016... this is one of the best things i have ever found.. i guess i need to be more clear it was found 4/6/16 in Pa near Philadelphia.....its solid sand cast brass no identifying markers... it was found at a spot where 1,000 revolutionary war soldiers encamped, and in 1863 600 civil war soldiers encamped there it was also a civil war hospital site for wounded from Gettysburg... im gonna say the item is civil war era .. but a person from the UK says its 1770's British style which would be even more awsome.
I can just imagine the history that this piece has seen. it was very deep

I love relics like that! Such an interesting and intriguing find, with loads of history attached to that. I would not like to hear some of the story it would have to tell though. Anyways, awesome find and congrats!
