Flying Eagle and Civil War Company Letter F

Bharpring · Feb 9, 2019

This was from 3 consecutive hunts at the same site with the XP Deus HF Elliptical Coil. The highlights were the 1858 Flying Eagle and the Civil War Company Letter F insignia.

Thanks. It had some crust stuck on it from whatever it was lying on for 160 years, finger nailed that off as much as I could and toothbrushed it. Put vaseline on it and wiped clean. Got lucky on this one.
