Hello all. Really could use some help to I.D. this. It is an eagle pin or brooch and appears to go on a strap or a sling?
It is brass with gold plate. It seems All the hardware is on the underside as well… just heavily encrusted. Which I have left alone.. I have looked everywhere and can’t I.D. it.. any help would be GREATLY Appreciated!!!
This was found at a civil war era train depot in ElmiraNY. It is now a church field. Within walking distance of the Hellmira civil war prison site. I have plenty of experience digging this stuff and I’m convinced it’s military…. But I’m completely STUMPED!
