Last weekend's hunt - sword belt plate
This is my Federal sword belt plate from last weekend's hunt at an old homestead site in central TX. The ancestor of the current owner owned all the surrounding lands, and served in the Mexican war in 1847-48, and in the Civil War as well so its likely this is his belt plate. Got lucky and found it in a wide sweep of the area around the homestead, probably 25 yards out from the structure. Its complete and has the attachment hook intact on the back.
