Scarce Style I.D. from the 17th Pennsylvania Cavalry – Lists 5 Battles Including Gettysburg! They fought under John Buford!
This I.D. is the small size McClellan style… about the size of a penny. This I.D. is quite amazing in the amount that is engraved on it. On the front is engraved:
J. H. TRONE
CO. G 17th PA. CAVLY.
WAYNESBORO, PA.
On the reverse:
BATTLES
BEVELRY FORD
GETTYSBURG
FALLING WATER
UPPERVILLE
CHANCELLORSVILLE
This little tag is in fine condition, still having just a touch of its gold gilt. The 17th Pa. Cav. monument at Gettysburg is one of the most beautiful showing a trooper mounted on his horse. The monument is in the location of the headquarters of the 17th on the morning of July 1st.
Fortunately we have the benefit of photographic enlargement to show off this beautiful little tag!
