Will find out tomorrow... I took a photo and sent it to my friend who owns a civil war shop in Stafford for over 30 years. He didn't want to tell me how much its worth over the phone but told me it was legit. I will post a update. They are very rare documents.

I was not able to get a 100% price on it but was told it was legit. Maybe $300-$1,000 maybe more?.. Very rare document. Btw the document opens up if taken out and is got 4 pages in total with Surgeon signing it. Will get photos of that.

I would guess the less you touch it the better. What's the best way to preserve it? That's a great piece of history that's worth any preservation costs. Nice score HSD!!
