1) Near pristine colorful patriotic ribbon measuring 5-3/4" x 2-1/2" with delicate scalloped edges, Lady Liberty holds a sword and a furled 34-star flag with the Capitol in the background flying the American flag. Other patriotic motifs above "THE UNION and the CONSTITUTION". 2) A fine 29th Pennsylvania 12th Army Corps badge. This was a commercially made silver badge with a 1-1/4" silver star with T-bar pin and raised central device with another star with "29" engraved. Badge is inscribed on reverse "C. Lhulier Co. F 29 RPV". The 29th is a hard-fought unit in the Army of the Potomac, particularly strongly engaged at the Battle of Chancellorsville and the Battle of Gettysburg. The 12th Army Corps, after large losses at Gettysburg including nearly 100 casualties alone for the 29th, was sent to Tennessee where the combined 11th and 12th Corps became the 20th Corps, still utilizing the "star" for it's Corps badge. Cassimer Lhulier enlisted as a private in July 1861 and saw every battle with the 29th finally being discharged in Atlanta, GA in July 1864 after being wounded at the Battle of New Hope Church near Dallas, GA May 25, 1864. 3) 1861 dated U.S. quarter with face removed and inscription "I.E. CROW 47TH WIS. VI. Co. G". Inscription appears original, though not done by the most artistic hand, in block letters. Isaac E. Crow of Haney, WI did not muster into service until February 6, 1865 as a Private. The 47th Wisconsin was organized February 27, 1865, and served as Garrison duty in Louisville and Nashville, TN where it stayed until mustering out on September 4, 1865. The 47th saw no action but did lose 35 men to disease and Private Crow died at the age of 25 in 1866 and is buried in Woods Cemetery, Bell Center, Crawford County, Wisconsin. This is a nice example of a Civil War ID pin, possibly inscribed by Crow himself. SIZE: PROVENANCE: From the personal estate collection of John W. Armiger Jr. CONDITION: 1) Patriotic ribbon is fine overall with bright colors with slight fraying at bottom edge. Ribbon was tightly trimmed when manufactured on left side. 2) Two silver ID pins are very good to fine overall with silver patina with original pins. 49055-11 JS (2,000-3,000)
