Confederate Infantry Coat Button

SOLD

Item: Confederate Infantry Coat Button
Backmark:
  Blank
Construction: Convex, two-piece.
Approximate size: 22 mm.
Condition: Excellent, excavated, secure shank present. The front, with its raised letter "I", has a very pleasing smooth, even brown surface patina. This very solid button has no pushes, cracks, breaks, or repairs.

Comments:  This fine Confederate infantry button was acquired directly from the local Virginia digger. Interestingly, the engagement at Cumberland Church is considered to be the last battle victory for the Confederacy prior to Lee's surrender at Appomattox. It will be an excellent addition to any Civil War button or general relic collection.
