This a white metal identification disk, showing a portrait bust of George Washington with the words “GEORGE WASHINGTON / BORN FEBRUARY 22, 1732” around the outer edge.

Like all Civil War identification disks, this was privately purchased and stamped on the reverse with its owner’s name, unit identification, and home town. The revers is stamped in an arc along the top edge: “HERMAN C. MILLER.” Below that in three parallel straight lines is “Co. H. / 52 REG. / P.V.” Below this in along the bottom edge is “ARCHBALD”.

The disk shows wear overall with small dings and scratches.
