Smiths pat. Shoulder insignias?

[1867crete]

These shoulder straps, is how I came to find CivilWarTalk! I ran across this site,and doing research found a thread on Smith's pat. I feel very confident these are a example, but wanted some other opinions! Light blue felt, with stamped brass wired to a thick piece of appears of card stock? Obviously the backing is missing on both boards. You can see wisps of a black fabric that would have covered the back , and I believe would have had the labels? I have them in a prominent spot in my CW display but thought I would get some input and see if I should "demote" them to Indian/spam am shelf. Or gasp!? Even later!! Lol any case I got them for a song and love them! Thoughts?
