Civil War saddle shield!

Found this old saddle shield, but didn't know what I had until I got it home and cleaned it up.
"Allegheny Arsenal 1863".
Hard to see, but the saddle size is also stamped just above the slot... "3".

Here's an article I would highly recommend about the tragedy which occurred at the Allegheny Arsenal...

A video of the hunt is posted on my YouTube channel - Tarheel Diggin'.
 
Congrats! I love those late surprises.
