Here is a Beautiful Displaying CS81 Confederate General Service Coat Button ! It has a wonderful smooth greenish brown patina front and back, that very nicely highlights the lined C.S.A. device on the front. There is a push about center between the S and the A, which I have tried to show in the pictures, but it doesn’t detract much from this pretty button. The reverse shows a tight, intact shank, and nicely legible uncommon maker’s mark of, “S. Buckley & Co. Birmingham”. 23mm. Only provenance I got with this one was “South Carolina.” A Fine Displaying Confederate C.S.A. General Service Button !

Here is an Excellent Dug CS130 Confederate Script -C Cavalry Button ! The front shows a nice brown/plumb patina with some moderate ground action, but still enough detail to nicely display the lines in the lined -C device. No pushes, cracks or damage of any sort. The reverse shows a little more ground action, but just enough of the maker’s mark to know that it was “Isaac Campbell & Co. London. 71 Jermyn St,”. The shank is intact as well. Approximately 22mm.

Here is a Decent Displaying Dug CS36 Confederate Staff Officer’s Coat Button ! It’s the pattern with the eagle facing left on a lined field, encircled by eleven stars. It has no pushes or cracks and a nice green patina overall, with a bit of rust around the eagle’s head, and hints of gold gilt in several of the lines, and around the stars. The reverse shows a mottled plumb color, with enough of the maker’s mark legible to tell it was, “H T & B Manchester.” The shank is still present and tight though tilted to one side. I Sold this button once, and it was returned. Before posting it again, I put some baby oil on the rusted areas and attempted to remove some of the rust with a wooden toothpick. Quite a bit came off, but in the process, I poked a tiny hole in the outside of the eagle’s right wing. Re-Photographed the button to show that. It is hardly visible from the front, but can be easily seen when turning on edge. So, this button which I once sold for $350 is now available again, for just $220 ! Recovered near Batesville, Arkansas. 24mm. A Very Nice Priced CS36 Confederate Staff Officer’s Button !

It has no cracks, pushes, or damage of any sort, and retains a good portion of its original gold gilt on the front, very nicely highlighting the eagle device. The device is an eagle looking right, on a lined field, with a wide border that almost makes it look like a three-piece button. The reverse shows a blank, deep channel back, with gilt still remaining in the channel and intact though loose shank. There is some chipping around the edges but button is still tight and strong. This particular pattern was only manufactured in this size, about 15mm. Recovered Tennessee. An Uncommon and Superb Displaying CS27 Confederate Staff Officer’s Button !
