It's not an Inaugural, but it's close enough and scarcer than most Inaugurals. Found at a Rev War site in SW PA. G. Washington sleeve link.

Not an Inaugural but fits in the thread like a glove! I wonder if any members have any mourning buttons? Any GW related button is welcome here :icon_thumleft:
