Found a Leech & Rigdon tongue to 2 piece sword belt plate at a homesite in northeast texas. Is in excellent shape, no bends or plough marks. Spent four hours looking for the wreath but no luck yet
OMG, fantastic recovery. Congrats to you!
I feel your pain on trying to find the other half (wreath). I dug my "NC" tongue in a yard of an old house and never could find the wreath portion.
I wish you the best.

Hey, at least you guys found the tongue. I got a wreath & can't find the tongue! It's an unknown variety so it may be militia, confederate... who knows? Congrats on your BANNER find! My vote is in!
Awesome find. At least you got the tongue that is the true identifying feature of the combo. Congrats on that find brother. A "CS" marked relic is the ultimate find to many of us.
