CSBP 17.  Dug Alabama Vol. Militia buckle.
Rare State plate dug on the site of a field hospital
near Spotsylvania Courthouse, VA. This plate
is a very good candidate for repair because a
frayed rim is much easier to do than pieceing
together a broken one. This one does have a
great look in spite of the damage and is priced
where a good repair job might be
an excellent investment.
