THE BATTLE OF ANTIETAM / RECOVERED IN THE AREA OF DUNKER CHURCH IN THE 1960s -
3 Relic Brass Grommets from Tents or Gum Blankets / Ponchos - one small one
still
has some material sandwiched in the center. The largest one just under 1 inch.
These 3 Relic Brass Grommets from Tents or Gum Blankets / Ponchos
were recovered close to the Dunker Church at Antietam in the 1960s. The Dunker Church is, perhaps, the most famous building on the Antietam battlefield and was at the heart of the morning's fight. I acquired these artifacts more than a decade ago, but they have been stored away until recently 'rediscovered'.
A provenance letter will be included.
All of the collections that we are offering for sale are guaranteed to be authentic and are either older recoveries, found before the 1960s when it was still legal to metal detect battlefields, or were recovered on private property with permission. Some land on Battlefields that are now Federally owned, or owned by the Trust, were acquired after the items were recovered. We will not sell any items that were recovered illegally, nor will we sell any items that we suspect were recovered illegally.
Thank you for viewing!
