Anyone know what date this is

The cartridge pouch looks both original and retro, felt pen is just a reference, leather looks great if original. Is there a tin insert?

everything looks great, almost too good condition to be original. I'm pretty sure they didn't have sharpie markers during the civil war though.

Extremely doubtful that 150 year old leather is going to look that good or that 150 year old brass will have no patina. Nice stuff though. My guess as far as the date ? 2010 lol.. Here is a belt & buckle I bought at an estate auction. Said to have been kept indoors in the collection of the family since the end of the war. Authenticated by several experts. The leather is so dry that when I tried to fold it it cracked.

You are also showing a nipple wrench and a wire for cleaning fired debris out of the nipple on the rifle. Yankee re-enacter gear.
