WWII Submarine Chaser PC-469 brass builder’s plaque 12 inches x 4 1/4 inches x 9/16 inch and weighs 6.3 pounds. From what I read there were 373 ships in this class. Only 4 went to the US Coast Guard and were manned by Coasty’s. PC-469 was one of them. These boats were 173’ 8”, had 4 officers and 55 enlisted. She was sunk as a target in 1946.

Sweeeet. Great looking I really love the builders plates. Kind of hard to find them to a US Warship these days.
