Reference: Similar examples of company letters are found in the following Civil War relic reference books:

• "Excavated Artifacts from Battlefields and Campsites of The Civil War" by Stanley S. Phillips on page 87.
• "Civil War Artifacts" by Howard R. Crouch on page 159.
• "Relics of the Coastal Empire: The Civil War Years" by The Coastal Empire History Hunters Association on page 129.

Comments: According to renown Civil War insignia expert, Mike Singer, the letter "H" is particularly difficult to recover intact, which makes those that are a rarity. This example is from the Glenn Trimmer collection and will be an excellent addition to any excavated Civil War insignia or general relic collection.
