The scabbard shown here is of the 1863 pattern which contains eight copper rivets, 4 of which are located on the frog and 4 on the scabbard’s throat. This pattern of 8 copper rivet arrangements, which superseded the earlier pattern of only 2 rivets, was added to the frog in 1863 and entered circulation in 1864. Edwin Crossman and Company of Newark fulfilled limited contracts in 1864 and 1865 for military accoutrements – making this one relatively rare.

Outer surface of scabbard and frog are supple with overall light crazing and a crease at the body’s midpoint. Brass tip is in place, but loose with no pins present.  All stitching is tight and secure.  The outface of the loop frog is prominently stamped “E. A. CROSSMAN & CO. / NEWARK / N.J.” near the top, with a faint stamp closer to the throat (between the rivets). [cm][ph:L]
