This one goes to 11!

[chopper]

So I've been maxing out the gain and digging iffy signals. Found a nice 3 ringer, a scrappy eagle cuff and this other stuff. On the rt. side of the pic is a thin copper rectangle, about two inches long. This is the 2nd one I've found, there are 3 holes on each side. Any ideas?

Nice finds, your unknown item is an epulet keeper, or shoulder board keeper. It held the rank bar on the shoulder of a civil war period coat.

Unfortunatly, I have thrown away many good items due to ignorance. I now make sure that I look everything up before pitching into the trash. I even threw away a what I am now sure was a confederate belt plate at one point, it was rolled up and bare faced, dang my stupidity.
