KM breast eagle, opinions needed

[MattS]

I picked this up really cheap here recently, don't know if it was $3 well spent or not. Has some staining to the left wing, appears to have been on an uniform at one time. Measures 3 3/4 by 1 3/4 inches overall. All opinions welcome!

Greetings MattS,

That was a perfect way to spend $3. I would buy them all day for that. You purchased a nice private purchase enlistedmans embroidered breast eagle. Find me some army ones!!

You bet- I've got a vet estate-buy coastal artillery eagle just like this one.

So are these two from the same maker? They look pretty similar to my untrained eye.

Its entirely possible, same design just different background wool. Nice score! Matt

These are most often attributed to be French made. I've also had them in dark blue on white and a lighter blue on white. Very well spent $3.00!
