WTB: Winder 1885 Receiver sight

I am looking for a 4 hole screw on receiver sight from a Winder high wall.  I am really only interested in the bracket as I have a project in mind. With that thought in mind I am looking for cheep!

Thought I had both a complete sight and a bracket without the rest.  Went and dug through a few of my useless junk boxes and couldn't find any.  Did find 3 of these, I think the center one of them came from these high wall muskets.

I get so much of this stuff accumulated I sometimes get disgusted and empty a box into the scrap iron bucket.   

Did that today with gun/sight screws.  Started to sort them into my gun screw organizers, realized how many I have already, and walked over to the iron bucket and dumped them in. (after taking out the most likely ones)   

But, a couple days ago I needed a screw for a Browning Buckmark, it's an odd screw with a large flat head and tapered seat, and amazingly enough, there was one in the screw organizer that fit perfectly.  I guess we all save this stuff for that reason. 

I looked through the lots on Curt Hardcastle's auction today.  I was tempted to bid on a bunch of it.  Thought better of it, I already have plenty of my own already.  Enough to last the rest of my lifetime.

I think I have one.  I'll dig it out tomorrow and shoot you a picture. 
If it works, just send me the postage and pay it forward

Thanks for looking Dave.  If you find my missing Merrit Eyedisc let me know. I had set it aside so I could take it to the hardware store to look for a rubber shade replacement and now it is missing.
