I have just found this at a car boot sale here in the UK. Clearly and Epaulette of brass construction in three main parts and lots of scales, possibly Gilded. If anyone can read the letters that would be great I can never read them. Every nook and cranny has mud in it suggesting its been in the ground but where I do not know. Some help needed possibly from any of you in the USA as the nearest I can get is similar pictures of Civil War stuff. I know someone will ask how much so £3.00 or approx $5.
