This is a version that you don't often see! It is a great looking original 23mm version coat size Civil War Cavalry Eagle "C" button. This is the button that would have gone down the front of a Cavalry Officer's coat. The eagle on the front of the button has the "C" in the shield that denotes the Cavalry branch of military service. As you can see this is the distinct face variation that was only made by Scovill but what is special is that they made it for the Baltimore retailer Canfield Brothers. It has their retailer marking ont he reverse of the button which is much more scarce than the usual scovill marking. This style is listed as CV228a2 in Tice's button book. It has beautiful color to the brass on the face and the back has the scarce backmark. This is a very nice looking Civil War Cavalry coat button. Item #: A8565 Shipping Weight:
