War of 1812 NY Militia Plate!!!!!!...1819 LC

[Brian W]

I went out with some friends for a few hours...We went to one of my buddies spots...It was all woods and walls
After about an hour of digging cans and shot gun shells i got a sweet tone...1819 LC...I was pretty happy right then...But as it got dark i turned on the head lamp and continued...I decided to stay around the area where i found the LC...Glad i did...I got a loud can signal, figured i should dig it so i wouldnt have to deal with it later...I dug and couldnt believe i was looking at a plate!!! It is a find of a lifetime for me and my favorite find...I took Iron Patches advice and dry cleaned only...it looks great and im EXTREMLY Happy with this plate...As there is a good chance i will not dig a second one...

I'm pretty sure since there already is a 1812 plate on the banner this one will not make it up there... altho it derserves to be there....

Amazing Banner

 

[Mach1Pilot]

Wow. Look at the condition of that plate!

 

[muleskinner]

To me those are both Banner worthy! When you say "dry clean" only, do you mean a soft tooth brush? I gotta know cause it cleaned up well.

Silver Officers Regimental Button. But I have not found a Militia Plate.

Awesome find!!!
