Selling this spectactular button from my collection. Very rare and hard to find in this condition. You would be hard pressed to find any better.

Here is a super nice confederate wartime manufacture block "I" with stars. This is a nondug speciman, and would have been worn by infantry troops. Stars encircle the "I", usually they are weakly stampted, but these are very crisp, and overall the front is very sharp on detail. This crude southern "local" has a brass front, with sheet iron for the back, copper wire shank upright and tight. Very crudly crimped but original. This button screams southern pride, and manufacture.
Backmark: ""Blank Back Local"(23.5mm)
