Description

1839 Oval “US” Dragoon Belt Plate.

This Dragoon plate from the front is identical to the regular pattern, but on the backside, the studs are placed on the left side.  The saber hangers on the left side leave little room for adjustment unlike the Infantry belt, and the Dragoon adjustment was made toward the right side of the belt.

Lead backed as well as the studs and belt hook. A few very light dings overall on the brass surface area, and a few on the upper oval rim.

Not maker marked.

3 1/4 inches long.
