Revolutionary War Scottish Highland Officers GR Sword-belt tip. Recovered 1500 yards west from Carleton Island, with 84th Regt. buttons. No doubt used by and officer of the 84th, as gilt can be seen in channel. A rare opportunity, for a rare plate.

Don Troiani said of this piece.

\"Highland units favored these types of sword belt tips. This nice specimen is engraved \"GR\" so at this point cannot be really connected with any specific unit. The excavations at Carleton island have produced buttons of the 8th, 10th, 9th, 20th, 21st, 34th, 44th, 47th, 53rd, 60th , and 84th RHE and a number of other units .\"
