Pre Civil War US baby plate with soldiers initials carved in back, scarcer lettering

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

Got out today to a new permission. not a ton of finds but a couple quality ones. a nice Pre Civil War US baby plate with soldiers initials carved in back, a KG II copper and a few other finds. Stoked to have dug my 2nd baby plate. this one has thinner lettering than my 1st one.

My favorite finds are the ones that are somehow personal.
