I dug many of these from early 1862 battle and campsites. Early in the war both North and South used these belt plates. After the Seven Days Battle, 1862 the Union changed their uniform to the blue and did away with the state militia uniforms. Many of the northern uniforms were grey and fighting the Seven Days Battle before Richmond, Va. it was hard to know north or south when confederates made that charge. The confederate soldier used this plate 1861-1865. My two original master patterns are marked J. S. Smith & Sons, New York.

The T-14A below is a new pattern that I just used as a master this year (2007). I have used the T-14 since 1969 and still use it today. The difference is in the (S). Note the S at the top is not as defined as the new pattern but other than that they are both the same style. Both are cast from my original belt plate.
