    Description

    Quite uncommon plate. This is a dug model 1819 belt plate (unfortunately, I have no record of where it was found). Clear "U.S." on front. Stabilized corrosion on the reverse. All three wire prongs remain on the back. Measures 3 x 2 1/8 inches.
    These plates were designed by George Armitage in Philadelphia. Only about 5,000 were made.
    Riker case shown in the last pic is included to ensure this piece continues to be protected as it travels to the next collector!
    Always happy to combine shipping on multiple wins!
