thanks everyone , and thanks Umrgolf for the info on Roland and the website . this is one of the two of my most sought after military relics (the other being and early military belt plate) so i was more than stunned when i turn over this large (expecting the usual scrap of brass sheathing) brass piece and see the heraldic looking eagle staring up at me .

thanks again
