Offered is a super Society of the Army of the Potomac membership badge and ribbon bar.  This society allowed every officer and enlisted man who had at anytime served with the Army of the Potomac and  had been honorably discharged to be members of the society.  The badge is beautiful badge with crossed sabers, crossed cannon tubes, and a drop with red enameling surrounding corps badges.  In the center of the drop is an "AP" with a star over it.  A blue, white, and blue ribbon attaches the crossed saber hanger with the drop.  The back of the drop has museum markings from the Civil War Mollus museum that was in Philadelphia.  The ribbon bar has a blue, white, and blue ribbon.  These ribbon bars are very hard to find by themselves, much less coming with the badge.

A very hard to find badge worn by Massachusetts veterans at the Massachusetts Monument Dedication at Antietam, Maryland in 1898.  The hanger has "Massachusetts" on it.  A light ribbon is attached and a drop with the Massachusetts coat of arms on the front of the drop.  On the back of the drop is written "Dedication Antietam Monument - Antietam, MD. - 1898.".  The badge is approximately 3 1/16 inches by 1 3/4 inches.  These Antietam monument badges are getting very hard to find!

This is an unique pin in the shape of a Union general. At the bottom of the badge is "Gen. Stedman". Griffin Alexander Stedman (1838-1864), gallant soldier and distinguished citizen, was 26 years old at the time of his death. Born in Hartford, he graduated from Trinity College in 1859. In 1861 he joined Connecticut's 14th Infantry Regiment, but almost immediately became a captain in the 5th Regiment Connecticut Volunteers. He participated in many battle actions, receiving promotions at intervals, until he was fatally wounded August 5, 1864, at Petersburg. This badge was probably given out at the monument dedication in Hartford, Connecticut on October 4, 1900. A neat and unique badge.
