1806 Sandwich Volunteer Artillery Shoulder Belt Plate

[DJT]

Sandwich Volunteer Artillery shoulder belt plate. Circa 1806. Measures approximately 7 cm (H) by 5.2 cm (W). Not my area of collecting but a very interesting item nonetheless. According to what I could find, there were only 30 members of this unit (see the last few images). Someone told me there is another example on display in a museum in Ramsgate. In good worn condition. Asking 500 pounds + post. It's located in Holland but can be posted from the UK if the buyer prefers. PM if interested and thanks for looking. SOLD
