Very cool old relic. I have recovered a few and they are a bear to get out of the ground intact. Nice recovery and looks presentable to me.

I am very lucky that I took my time on this one and that I didn't destroy it when recovered. Keep Swinging!!

Sweet save. That plate is almost 100 years old.
It's probably been in the ground for better than 90 years. Surprisingly,, it still got a little meat to it.
Congratulations

That rusty patina look makes for an awesome display piece. I found a 1950 Ohio plate earlier this spring that has that rusty look and My son-in-law hung it in his office at work.
Great recovery.
