CELLAR HOLE HUNT*CIVIL WAR UNION EAGLE SWORD BUCKLE

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

sniffy picked me up at 7am and we headed up to a couple holes in his neck of the woods.was digging big iron pieces.my fourth target read half dollar at 4 inches.i dug a square nail and was saying it's gonna be one of them iron days then a flat piece of rusty iron came out of the hole.scanned the hole again and figuring there was still more iron in the hole i was digging carelessly when this buckle popped out .i nicked it with my shovel still more iron was in the hole and a brass piece too.so much stuff in one hole and was not expecting this find that's for sure.sniffy got skunked and i felt horrible that he didn't find any keepers.
my only other decent find was the flat button.no coins,no coppers but would really like to know if this is a union civil war eagle belt plate? any idea on the value would be appreciated too.
thanks all and have a great weekend!

hahaha I was going to say there's you center piece, then I see it really is... and I guess I still said it.

I'm still looking for mine. I have plenty of good finds but want something large and killer to stick in the middle.
