Hi all. I'm posting this on war relic hunting, although I don't know if its military related. I apologize if it's just junk.
I've recently been going through my "interesting but unknown" finds because my area's buried in snow. I just had to do something MD related, because I'm going crazy.
Anyhow, I found this about two years ago. I'm pretty sure it was at an old house/yard. I remember that when I found it, I thought it was just junk. Maybe something off of a house or mailbox. ???
Well, looking at it closer, I realize that it's attached to a small piece of leather with a wire. *See backside pic on second post. Then I remembered a thread or two on the forum. Seems I saw some similar brass letters that were military(civil war) related???
Then I did a google search and saw brass company letters attached to the top of union caps. What the !!!!!
Could this possibly be a CW relic?!
Thanks for any input and PLEASE let this be what I hope it is!
