🥇 BANNER ROYAL ARTILLERY SHAKO PLATE

[CanDiver]

HI everyone. I went for an early morning dive and find a few nice coins. When I was down to 500 pounds I started kicking back when I got a decent signal. I swept twice and saw a broken dish... when I turned it over there she was. What a beauty!!!! So rare I cannot find another example.

Thanks, I'll take you up on that. What do you have to do to get banner? I wouldn't put put half the stuff up there in my bag. Guess I have to list boring American crap.

Congrats on making banner!

I don't know where you're located, but I'm guessing this is from the War of 1812. Any idea of the local history?
