North Carolina State Seal Coat Button
Item: North Carolina State Seal Coat Button
Backmark: Blank channel.
Design: According to "Uniform Buttons of the United States 1776-1865" by Warren K. Tice, “The North Carolina seal and coat of arms depict the female figures of "Liberty" and "Plenty". The former holds a liberty pole with her right hand and a scroll inscribed "CONSTITUTION" with her left. "Plenty" grasps a cornucopia in her left hand and wheat with her right."
Construction: Convex, two-piece.
Approximate size: 23 mm.
Condition: Good, excavated, shank missing. Pleasing chocolate brown patina with worn state seal details. Specks of silver wash visible under light on front with a bit more in channel on rear. There are no pushes, cracks, or repairs.
Recovered: Spotsylvania County, VA area.
Reference: Tice: NC210D2 Albert: NC 8
Comments: What makes these locally manufactured North Carolina buttons attractive is their crudeness typical of Confederate made war products. This example will be an excellent addition to any Civil War button or general relic collection.
