CONFEDERATE LOUISIANA SABER BELT. Rare New Orleans made 2-pc Louisiana buckle with concentric rings to wreath and rnd belt keepers. Tongue medallion is die-struck. Buckle is on patent leather belt with canvas core. This particular manufacturer produced three varieties of buckles of different types with different medallions, including a CS and a star. This is only the second buckle of this type that we have noted on its orig belt. This lot is accompanied by letter of authenticity from Steve Mullinax, noted buckle authority. CONDITION: Buckle exhibits fine untouched patina. Belt is complete, though almost broken in back, only held on by about 1/4 of the canvas core. Numerous large cracks in belt, which is very dry in some areas. Both sword hangers are present, but both are broken in half. Sword hangers still retain the orig sword hooks. 4-55784 JS77 (10,000-15,000)
