NON-EXCAVATED, SMALL FALSE EMBROIDERED CIVIL WAR CROSSED SABERS INSIGNIA

$225.00 SOLD

Quantity Available: None

Item Code: 410-484

This stamped brass device is an excellent example of a Civil War Cavalry officer’s hat insignia. Device features two long sabers crossed at their center points. This specimen has scabbard rings touching the quillion of the knuckle guard. Made to mimic the regulation insignia that was constructed of embroidered bullion thread, these stamped brass variants were much sturdier in the field. This specimen is in very good condition. The one-piece insignia measures about 2 ½” wide x 1 ¼” high. This piece shows a pleasing dark patina. There are no bends or dents. Piece retains two of the four original, brass wires soldered to the body.

A fine specimen of a Civil War cavalry officer’s hat insignia.  [jet]
