Description
Extremely nice G.A.R. Membership badge. Badge consists of a brass spread-winged eagle perched on crossed cannons over a stack of cannonballs. Reverse has the original pin. Suspended from the top bar is a full color US Flag silk ribbon that is in good condition. This is the first time I have encountered one of these with the silk ribbon. The brass star shaped drop has the GAR seal at center with crossed rifles, swords, cannons an anchor and an infantry horn in each of the arms of the star. Reverse has all the Corps badges relating to the entire Union Army. Numbered along the edge “V41286”. Very nice example
