Pattern 1858 embroidered artillery hat insignia backed on black velvet measuring 2 ¼ inches. The gold bullion wire of this insignia is in rough shape; some of the threads have come undone and are missing while others are still attached but are literally hanging on by a thread. The size and length of the barrels indicate that this piece was created and would have been used from 1858 through 1865. The black velvet this piece is backed on has some chewed edges and wear.

The underside of this insignia is backed in oilcloth which is not the norm. A small piece of oilcloth is missing and a cream-colored cotton is revealed. Peeking under the oilcloth, you can see the stitching of the insignia.  [cla] [ph:L]
