Two small size U.S. eagle-infantry-I buttons and the sliding friction buckle from an officer’s or privately purchased forage cap, recovered at Fredericksburg. The brass frame buckle still has a small piece of the chinstrap adhering to it. The buttons have stamped tinned iron backs, which is acceptable wartime use for these particular buttons. The faces have excellent detail and both the buttons and the buckle have a fairly bright patina. The backs of the buttons are good, showing as gray except where spots of the tin wore off and the iron shows rust spots. The wire loops naturally rusted away. [sr][ph:L]
