That's really cool to have one that you know was 100% over there. Do you know if your brother captured it in combat or if he bought it?

Good day all! I could use a little direction on this WW1 USMC Canteen set. Cover is Phila Depot 1914, the canteen is unmarked seamless and the cup is unmarked. I know its general rarity but I am not sure what kind of dollar value to put on it if I were to consider selling at a fair asking price? I am fully aware that appraisals are just a guess that can be effected by a wide number of things. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

Gonna try to make it out for a brief visit, but no chance to set up. For some reason my wife doesn't want to spend her birthday at a Civil War show in Brandon, MS

Just a reminder the Brandon Show is coming up in a couple of weeks.  Hope to see y'all there.  

Bad...    

Well done!

Yes, his number within his unit. It would be used to mark his equipment.

Sure can.  I'll do that later on.

These have the illusion of being flat but they are actually on the poofy side.  I've illustrated the two with the one identified as being authentic and mounted with pin faster assembly.
