Cased tintype image of a Civil War soldier. I am curious to know if there is any significance to the ribbing on the collar. Thank you!

Great image. The pipping (ribbing) on the collar and cuffs would be different colors, Red for Artillery, Blue for Infantry and Yellow for Cavalry.
 
Based on the trim probably an infantryman. It is a very nice image, but from a uniform point of view, I see nothing particularly special about his uniform.
