M1858 forage cap

[Injunben]

I picked up my first forage cap the other day and I figured id show it off to you guys. I've been researching like crazy trying to get as much knowledge on the caps as possible before I made my purchase. Thanks to those that have the knowledge and share it with everyone!

Great cap. At least in my view, in displayable condition.

That's a nice looking early war, type I forage cap. I really like to see these caps. It'll look great displayed in your collection! Congrats!
