Hunted an old home site last week and found my 2nd Confederate States Navy button. This button was made by Hebbert & co. In London during the civil war. From what I have found through research is that the navy jackets may have been issued to troops around Mobile AL before they eventually traveled to the middle Tennessee and upper Georgia areas. This button is in great condition and I left some of the dirt on this one to keep it original as possible. Enjoy and happy hunting!!

Nice find on the button..:occasion14:

As for your group, I don't believe you'll find a more educated and experienced
group of relic hunters than are right here on TNet.
