Re: artilery plate found need help identifying
These are Civil War era I believe and they should be brass and the buckle could be silver or made of White metal or "silvered". I think the buckle should be worth at least $50, but not sure about the plate but might be worth the same or better.
Of course, value is usually less when you find a piece of history like these and the other stuff.
