1851 Officer's Sword Belt Plate
After years and many hunts of Civil War sites with various hunt groups, I finally found a belt plate !!! And this was found a few days ago in a 1890's house lawn in a northern Chicago suburb of all places! From viewing 100's of 1851 officer sword belt plate pictures online, I still cannot identify the variation. Can anyone help me put the proper tag on this piece? Thanks for any and all info !!
