ID request dug near kennesaw. mnt.

Dug near kennesaw... as the pics tell you. The supposed buckle has no stamp on it. Was wondering why, and whose side it could of been on. Additionally, there is a piece that is iron found feet from where minnie balls and buckle were dug. I initially though it was a old plow. Any insight on that is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Brandon B.

It probably had a soldered insignia on the face that fell off. What does the back look like?

This could be a real good one. Here is a picture of page 41 in my Harris book. This one is described as a Militia plain buckle dug at Shiloh. Seeing the back of yours would help. Nice Find!

I think the iron piece is a foot from an old desk or similar piece of furniture.

Reverse Pictures Please .

IMO
A picture of the Back will answer this Thread.

Looks like the "Blank" Militia Plate shown by VN, (Also says 3 Soldiered ,Fastening hooks Missing.)

In that condition it should be easy to see where the hooks were , if they are not there.

Would love to know as I live only 10 min from the Mountain.
