DUG 6th CORPS BADGE

Originally $495.00

Quantity Available: 1

Item Code: 883-57

Recovered in the greater Richmond, VA area. Brass 6th corps badge has a darkened patina. Reverse shows where attachment pin had been soldered on but is no longer present. There are also two small holes in the center of badge for sewing badge to the soldier’s hat or left side of the uniform. This avoided confusion on the battlefield as a soldier could quickly be identified. Corps badges became a great source of regimental pride to the men who wore them.

Excellent collectible.

Measures 1 ½” across x 1 ½” high.   [SM]
