This is an original CS Richmond variation tongue in wreath belt plate. This plate exhibits a rich brown patina with verdigris in various spots. This plate is actually a little darker than the pictures show and has a smooth appearence to the file marks on reverse showing a lot of age and wear to the back and to the front. T is a casting flaw on the lower part of the S and the belt loop on the tongue is slightly bent from wear stress. Otherwise this plate is in Very Good Condition and exhibits no major flaws but does show use and wear. A really nice original item. If you have questions about this or any Civil War item go to the NVRHA ebay fakes site and ask the very experienced people who frequent that site, google NVRHA to locate them. T also are a few misinformed individuals who post t occasionally, it is a public forum available to anyone after all. My experience with the NVRHA folks is that if one of the knowledgable individuals believes an item is a reproduction or a fantasy piece they will always provide examples and or documented source information to support their position. Don't hesitate to request this and be wary if it is not provided as I have seen real items misidentified by those t who are misinformed.
