British military oval shoulder plate...

[K1DDO1979]

Well its what i think it might be anyway. I found a some nice new hunting grounds today with multiple cellar holes and i only had a chance to hunt around one very quick due to work. I didn’t get any coins this first time but at least the other finds tell me that the area should all be virgin sites. The find I’m excited about most is the shoulder buckle. Would be nice to find a fancy marked silver one but this will have to do. It has a weird engraving and what looks like the initials W H. Im hoping some buckle experts will have some info on it for me. Thanks for looking! [emoji2][emoji106]

Great looking buckle, sorry I can't give you any insight on the ID. The small letter to the right and the backslash symbol are different. How big is what appears to be a belt axe? It should clean up nice and display up well, and I bet your going to going back to this site again. Congrats on the finds so far.

Very well done. I look forward to your next post.

I love my old relics like buttons & buckles. That huge oval belt plate is just FANTASTIC! I hope you can get some specific information on it. Absolutely gorgeous find in excellent condition with sweet aged patina. Drooling on my keyboard. The hatchet is sweet as well as your other relics. Nice spot for another adventure.
