I would leave that baby just like it is. Green patina and just a lil dirt and rare and beautiful. That's what I see my friend. You just dug something the rest of us dream about finding. Congrats congrats congrats
 

Awesome CW artefact , congrats on your Killer find ..cheers Mick
 

i bet it's real, would be hard to duplicate the years this thing looks like.
 

oh man, that's awesome. no doubt worth some big bucks

Great find Bass! Thanks for sharing...
 

Very awesome find! Gets my vote!
 

I also say, leave as is, no cleaning, and . . . . .banner!
 

If you dug it in a site you have been digging CW relics there should be no reason to doubt it brother. You just pulled the Holy Grail of CW relics out my friend. Congrats sounds lame for such a find. Banner worthy beyond a doubt. Getting my Vote.
except for lost re-enactment gear. It has happened.

That is a very good point I hadn't thought of. I hope it is the real deal. Such a perfect find.

You lucky @#$%!&

No Expert Here Either .

But it looks real IMO & With all 3 Hooks attached :notworthy:
I don't have a Plate Ref, book ( have not needed one ,cause I've never dug a plate)
Anyhow In my Relic Quest Book There,s a Plate of that style pictured on page 430
The pics, 99% Identical and says "Confederate belt plate , Sand cast with rounded Corners .
(the book does not show a picture of the back).
congratulations

Absolutely Genuine, and a fantastic and valuable find! All the hooks intact, too. I'm voting banner on this great plate.

Wow! Wow!! Absolutely beautiful. Banner all the way.
 

vwayne1 never said it was re-enactment gear only that it happens which is why you can't assume everything from a CW site is CW.EXCELLENT FIND!!!!
