Union General's Frock Coat With Dress Epaulets

Item Details

Description

1861 Regulation Civil War Union Brigadier General's Frock Coat. Buttons spaced in groups of two, per regulation, blue velvet cuffs, and high blue velvet stand up collar. Black silk lining, draped in the skirts, which are raw edged, and quilted in the breast in a 1" diamond pattern. The high quality silk sleeve lining exhibits a blue ticking pattern, although seldom encountered on period coats this is a detail noted on a number of Federal officers' coats produced by high end New York City tailors such as Brooks Brothers. The buttons are matching eagle staffs, all with Extra Quality backmarks and all original to the coat. Retains the original heavy gold bullion fringed brigadier general's epaulettes with the rank of a single silver bullion star. A single bullion star is also affixed at each shoulder, directly on the coat under the epaulettes, a practice adopted by Union officers in the latter stages of the war to lower the risk of being identified as a high value target to Confederate sharpshooters. Overall superb condition, just some honest wear on the velvet surface of the collar. A beautiful coat for both quality and condition conforming precisely to Civil War regulations and completely untouched.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids.

Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions.
