A little more of a story to go with that Stellar find and I'll vote BANNER on it. The plate has EVERYTHING going for it--including the presence of all the hooks. The face of it looks a little odd, so I'll have to do some looking into that. It isn't the thin, Tennessee style plate--but might be the Atlanta style one... But it looks genuine to me as of now.

GREAT find!


Now get that story written so this can go up top!

 

[BuckleBoy]

After doing some checking, I believe this is the Atlanta Arsenal style cast rectangular C.S.A.

That's quite a FINE $2500.00 find.


Cheers,



Buck

Awesome. I live in Tennessee and I have yet to find a CS plate. And this one was found in Illinois. I wonder if it was a war souvenir that some one lost. Great find. Banner for sure.

I also vote Banner for this Fantastic Find!!! Congratulations

One time a good friend of mine and I were hunting a soon to be new school site. They were
tearing down many old houses. My buddy was hunting a hill of dirt when he got this signal. He pulls out what he thought was a Budwiser Beer Buckle. I looked at it and told him it looked like
a Civil War buckle. Sure enough it was a Officers Sword Belt plate in very good condition. By the way, we were hunting in the Great State of OHIO!!

You just never know what you will find.

Again, Congratulations
HH, Ringfinder
