First CS State Buckle (Alabama)

After 30 years of hunting I found my first state buckle.It's an Alabama map on tree egg shaped which I understand to be ultrarare in any condition.Sorry, no pics, but I'm taking it down to Lynchburg to show it to Dwayne at Lost & Found Relics and I'm sure he'll post some on his website!DBULL

You know there's guys that can work magic for twisted metal like that. Might be something to consider.

You need to have that professionally restored. I know MANY civil war relic restorers personally that will have that looking like it was in near perfect condition. Let me know if you would like their names and numbers. Also, it looks like the real deal but could you post some photos of the back? If that's the real deal, that is a SUPER RARE and MAGNIFICIENT FIND!!!!!!!!!

Now that is a banner find if I ever saw one!!!!! Congrats on a super rare find. I am one who thinks that that relic should be restored. Roland could do wonders for it!!!

 

[BobinSouthVA]

Wow that is really amazing. I'd have to side with the guys who are saying restore it. Certainly worth the time and effort.

Banner vote for sure
