Z5450 Federal Infantry Vest Button

Description: Decent non-excavated vest size button with traces of gilt on the face and a perfect shank. Tice dates this backmark to the 1860’s. Due to the split serif on the "I,” I would date this to the late Civil War or early Post-Civil War period.

Backmark: "* WATERBURY BUTTON CO.” dm

Measures: 16 mm

Reference: "Dating Buttons” by Tice Pg. 83 (1860’s)

Shipping Weight: 0.25 lb
