    Excavated U.S. Model 1851 Sword Belt Plate - Inventory Number: BEL 588

    Recovered in Virginia

    This is a fine example of the regulation Model 1851 sword belt plate, cast in brass and featuring the spread-winged eagle clutching arrows and olive branch with a patriotic wreath. Above the eagle, the banner “E PLURIBUS UNUM” remains clearly visible. The reverse retains its original tongue and bench number 134. This plate shows attractive chocolate patina with areas of green surface verdigris from ground exposure. The plate retains sharp details to the eagle and wreath despite its time in the soil, making it a desirable battlefield recovery.
