Buttons
-
 These
are interesting pewter buttons all found in a Confederate winter
campsite in Tullahoma, TN. They look to be pewter uniform
pants buttons, and the top one appears to have been flattened.
I wonder if the were starting to make poker chips? $25.

  This
is a beautiful Confederate staff officers coat button excavated in
Tullahoma, Tennessee. Check out the nice brown patina.
The wire shank is still present on this tight button. Great
eye catcher. $295.

  This
is a beautiful green Confederate Staff Officers coat button.
This beauty was excavated by the Shaner brothers in General Van
Dorn's campsite near Holy Springs, Mississippi. Only the shank
is gone, but a very desirable button. $265.
-
  Here
is a very crude floral type button. It is a very large
overcoat size and is a 1 piece cast button. As you can see the
shank is snapped on this button. Very cool and unusual large
button from Murfreesboro, TN. $20.
-
  Very
pretty U.S.M.A. West Point button (United States Military Academy). This
button is full of gold but does have a dent in the face. The
back mark is an early Scoville & Co. Waterbury which dates to the
1840 - 1850 period. The shank still stands strong. A
perfect button of this sort would cost around $150. If you can
live with a service dent, $49.
-
  Extremely
rare Mississippi local coat size button. Great strong button
with a small dent at the 2 O'clock. Shank is missing.
Why pay $1,600. + This fine button can be yours for the low
price of $645.
