Eagle sword waist plate, eagle with integral
wreath, Regulation 1874, pattern 916 variant
The next evolution of sword belt plates after the Civil War was the regulation
1874, in which the keeper was moved to the back of the belt, a very wide tongue
was employed. This pattern is tentatively identified to Evans & Haskell,
this based on the similarity of motif design with a pattern dating to the Civil
War attributed to them. Nondug plate on belt with hangers, belt is
flexible and whole. Plate measures 50mm x 74mm.
