Super
rare excavated Confederate "R" {Rifleman} button. This
button was recovered from low ground near Savannah, GA. and has quite a
bit of ground action. It is what it is though and you can see the
"R" from across the room and at a price that you aren't going
to believe.--$195.SOLD

Very
rare to excavate coat size Confederate "C" Cavalry
button. This is the scarce - mostly western theater - low convex "CS-142" in Albert
with the iron back. The button has an attractive face with a
smooth brown patina and nice definition on the "C".
There is only one faint hairline crack which doesn't detract from it's
eye appeal at all. The reverse is rusty iron which was partially
decayed when dug. It has been stabilized and coated and will
definitely stay where it is. You don't see this one for sale very
often.--$275.SOLD

Mint
condition coat size South Carolina state seal button. This is a
"Van Wart" backmark and has literally 100 % bright gold gilt
with the shank intact and straight.--$195.

Excavated
coat size Confederate cast pewter "I" button. Very
little ground action and nice detail on the face. The brass wire
loop on the reverse is missing which is probably how the button was
lost. It has first class display eye appeal.--$125.

Absolutely
flawless beautiful condition coat size gilted South Carolina State
Seal. The face couldn't be more perfect with 100 % bright gold
gilt. The reverse is perfect as well with a nice aged patina -
shank intact and straight - and a crisp clear backmark "Horstmann
and Allien - NY". This is a top shelf button.--$250.

Flawless
perfect 24 mm coat size "CS-5" Confederate staff officer's
button. This button has 100 % gilt - shank intact - and a
"treble gilt - extra rich" backmark. This is the exact
type button that is on General Robert E. Lee's uniform in the Museum of
the Confederacy.--$275.

Coat
size Confederate used "floral" button recovered from Starne's
Confederate Cavalry camp near Pikeville, TN. This button has a
rare "W. H. Jones" backmark which dates the 1840s era and is
also found on "Moultrie Guards" and "Republican
Blues" buttons. The button has a small hole drilled through
it for some purpose. Definitely a button with character.--$20.SOLD

Excavated
gilted coat size South Carolina State Seal button. The face has a
nice smooth brown patina with about 70 % bright gold gilt outlining the
detail. The reverse has the shank intact and the rare
"Canfield" backmark but, unfortunately, the button was at some
point apparently stepped on and pressed the shank forward into the
interior of the button and cracking the back around the shank.
This could easily be repaired by Robert M. if a person desired. It's a really pretty button just as it is though.--$150.

Absolutely
fine example of the coat size {CS81} "C.S.A." button with the
correct Civil War "Superior Quality" backmark. These
were relatively easy to come by at one time but now excellent ones are
tough to locate.--$250.

Absolutely
beautiful condition non-excavated coat size South Carolina button.
This button is on an old relic card and has the deepest - richest old
age patina that you will ever see. It has an "rmdc"
Horstmann-Allien" backmark.--$225.

Recently
excavated beautiful gilted coat size South Carolina button. This
button was recently recovered from Manigault's South Carolina camps near
Shelbyville, TN. The button is loaded with gold and has a perfect
face with a smooth brown patina. The reverse has the loop intact
and a nice early Scovill "depressed channel" backmark. This is a first class South Carolina button.--$225.

Mint
perfect condition coat size Confederate Staff Officer's button.
This is a beautifully gilted "CS5" with an "Extra Rich -
Treble Gilted" backmark. You won't see a nicer one.--$275.

condition non-excavated 19mm size Confederate Staff Officer
button. This one is mint with 100% bright gold gilt. The
reverse is perfect as well with the "Treble Gilt" backmark.--$195.

Excavated
coat size droop wing eagle Confederate staff officer's button. I'm
not sure if this button is listed or not. The eagle and wings look
like a CS20, but it doesn't match exactly. It has an uncleaned
brown-green woods patina and has the remnants of the iron shank
intact. This is a quite unusual Confederate staff.--$175.
