I'm not an expert but it looks good to me... If it's real you have a banner find right there!!!
 

Nice Buckle. I hope its the real deal. Unfortunately I don't have the experience to say. Great find!!
 

Awesome, indeed. Hope it's real.
 

Nice looking buckle. Hope its real for you.
 

Wow Bass that is in awesome condition! Hope it's real for you! I would need a new change of underwear when that popped out of the hole.
 

Looks good to me! There were a couple on here not long ago that made banner, I think they were relevant to the army of Tennessee? They had the black back like yours. I wouldn't do any cleaning other than tooth picking the remaining dirt away. (I don't use water)... Congrats!
 

If it's real, it is in super condition. Such great shape, I can understand your concern for it's authenticity. I am sure a couple people will be along very soon to ask you some questions and give you an answer. I hope it is the one you want. Congrats to you!
 

It is REAL, it is RARE, it is simply FANTASTIC!! I voted banner!! I wouldn't do more to it than clean it with a toothbrush and warm soapy water. I would not try to return it to a shiny state, the deep patina is gorgeous. SUPERB FIND!!!
 

If you dug it in a site you have been digging CW relics there should be no reason to doubt it brother. You just pulled the Holy Grail of CW relics out my friend. Congrats sounds lame for such a find. Banner worthy beyond a doubt. Getting my Vote.
 

Banner. ..Banner..Banner..That thing is gorgeous. ..Cant top that on CW.Relics...
 

That is amazing! I love it!!
 

Now that's a beautiful find right there Bass!! :occasion14:
I vote BANNER!

Thank you all I was shocked....My first glance was of the backside I knew it was a buckle I just held it in my hand for about ten minutes to scared to look at the front my girlfriend was looking at me like I was crazy wandering what I was doing..I said I think I may have just found a Civil War buckle but I didnt wanna look yet just give me a minute never would have dreamed it had a CS on the front..I must say it will just leave you speechless.....
 

I don't think that's some reproduction. I think it's a killer find. Congrats.
 

Banner all the way BUT don't clean it ... It is perfect just it is!
