Plate7499-Confederate-Frame-163-FAKE-FANTASY-REPRODUCTION
Confederate frame, FAKE-FANTASY-REPRODUCTION
Confederate, frame waist belt plate, style with beveled edge, Mullinax illustrations 163 to 169. Frame buckles are difficult to authenticate, Sizes vary significantly because many different sizes were made, and the finishing of the long edges can cause measurement to vary considerably one end to the other. Reliablity of source matters, but this is soft evidence at best. So frame plates shown in this section have been questioned , but these questions are just opinions, are seldom unanamous, and so authenticty is not certain. You take a look and see what you think.
