Silver casket plate. Inscribed onto the center of the plate are the words "Ira R. Kent / Died Oct. 9th 1875 / Aged 42 years." The top edge of the plate is rolled with fringe on either side creating the illusion of a scroll. The plate has an engraved vine border on the side and bottom edges. The plate is mildly tarnished with four ballpoint pen size holes in each corner.
