Popular Post Dcraun Posted March 1 Popular Post Share Posted March 1 Found this on a brand new permission. I have Dug scabbard tips before but never anywhere near this condition. I doubt the ground has ever been fertilized. Nearby I also found a piece of lead Sabot with clear rifling marks. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L David Keith Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Appears to be a standard Federal tip. I do not see any pin holes (to attach brass/iron pins to the leather scabbard) are there any holes around the mouth? Could be lost during the 20th century as kids like to play army with Grandpa's old army stuff. That's how we think many CS/CSA belt plates are found in yards. Most pre civil war to post will have these pin holes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
