1905 GAR Denver, Colo. National Encampment Badge

In my opinion, one of the prettiest badges made for Grand Army of the Republic National Encampments. This beautiful badge was created for the 1905 encampment held in Denver, Colorado.

Another bar has cattle, mining, and farming represented in silver and gold. The bottom drop has two enameled U.S. flags. An eagle with a GAR star and a bronze disk with the likeness of W.W. Blackmar, Commander-in-Chief. A yellow ribbon hangs behind the badge. On the back of the ribbon is a Whitehead & Hoag Co. sticker.
This badge is missing the pin on the back of the hanger.
