It was left behind by the previous owner, whom we never met. How did you go about finding the soldiers name whom yours belonged too? And if we wanted to auction or sell the items we found , do you have a suggestion as to the best place online? You seem very knowledgeable.

On eBay there is a seller selling a GAR - with a Patent No# and a DEC 28 1869. He has every photo imaginable, but does not show a serial#. He shows 100% rating on eBay. I feel it is a fake and asking 26.00 for it. Everyone I have looked at on line and at the library do not look like his. Please advise.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06663355104363743443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794264883509281126.post-50058244724382860072020-09-04T10:02:02.765-07:002020-09-04T10:02:02.765-07:00Why do some of the Eagle/Cannon hangers have Paten...Why do some of the Eagle/Cannon hangers have Patent #'s and dates, and some do not?<br />I'm very curious.Tim Mathisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13525660574050275401noreply@blogger.com
