This is the excavated style that is Southern in manufacture. The spur is completely unmarked and is the style that was worn by cavalry enlisted during the Civil War. It has the original rowel intact on the rooster style neck. On the back of the spur legs it has the rectangular style strap loops holes. The original leather boot strap and brass buckle are still present as well. He notes in the book, how the spur was found in Grapevine, Texas. The spur is in fine excavated condition for its age.
