Very Uncommon in Excavated Condition - CS36 Confederate Staff Officer's Coat Button |
|
|
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 !
