    This is an original, perhaps the actual basis for the MOD Cantles.

    I wish I had a shot from the rear, as I wonder if the belt bars are broken off/removed and thus the leather loop hanger
    This one is mine. It is an MOD cantle, not an original and retains the belt bars. I do have an original mid-18th century bronze cantle too, that one never had belt bars and the leather sits inside the hinges.
