This is a fine piece of history from a Civil War veteran. It is an original membership medal of a member of the Grand Army of the Republic. This was the veteran's organization of the Union veterans of the Civil War. In order to become a member of the organization you had to prove that you served honorably for the United States during the war. This is the medal that the veteran would have gotten after his service was proven. It has the top bar that has the eagle perched on top of a pair of crossed cannon with cannonballs below. This one has the original flag ribbon attached with a heavily worn look to the cloth that is hanging on by just a few threads and it is priced accordingly. The lower medallion is the Medal of Honor design with the G.A.R. seal in the center. Around the edge it has the images of the different branches of service that were the anchor, horn, cannon, rifle and saber. On the back of the medallion it has the images of the Union shield center surrounded by all of the different corps badges. This one is very nice and will enhance any collection.
