Hello. I am doing some research and came across your post. I found two copper name plates. They are round and were found in adjacent fields in
Jessamine Co., Ky, while hunting arrowheads. One has the name West
Chapin, engraved in it, and the other one has the name Marie De
Retz. I was trying to find out exactly what they were used for . They are about the size of a half dollar and each has a whole in the top above the name.They appear to be old although not extremley as I can make out the engraving .Jamie
