US & Northern State Accoutrement Plates

3. 1840's-1850's Militia Plate - These plates were used by militia units before the Civil War. When the war broke out these sturdy plates were carried off to war by both Union and Confederate soldiers. Many of these plates found there way to the lesser equipped Confederates as evidenced by the fact many have been recovered in CS camps. The exact location of this recovery is unknown but it is a beautiful example with no repairs, cracks or bends. The soldered hooks are missing. $395.00
4.
5. Breast Plate from The Wilderness - This Union breast plate was dug on private property at the Wilderness. This plate shows signs of being in the fire that broke out during the battle. The lead in the back of the plate has melted and pooled over to the right side. The face also shows signs of being consumed by fire at one time. This plate was not dug in a fire pit. It was dug in a battle area along with many others items lost in the heat of the struggle. This is a relic with a story to tell. $75.00
CS & Southern State Buttons
1.
2. Confederate Local Block A Button - (CS 117 ) - This Confederate Artillery Button was dug in Orange County Virginia very recently. It has a very nice brown patina. The tin back is solid and has a perfect shank. No repairs, cracks, dents or anything else to detract from this top quality button. $170.00
3. South Carolina Button - (SC 13A.6) - This loaded with gold South Carolina coat button was dug in Orange within the past several years.

4. Virginia Button - (VA 13) - This Virginia button was dug years ago in Confederate camp near Orange, Va. I hunt with the relic hunter who recovered this button. This button displays some ground action and as a result the back mark is illegible. The button is solid with a good stand up shank. $39.00

Miscellaneous Non-Dug Items
