Description

An Extremely Rare Set of Five (5) Post Civil War Era (Circa 1880) Maine State Seal Staff Officer Coat Buttons.  These are part of a large set of buttons that I inherited from my Great Aunt - who collected buttons starting in the late 1800s.  She lived in Maine.  These buttons are Maine Staff Office Coat Buttons featuring the Maine Coat of Arms - Dirigo at the top with a star and the coat of arms and Maine at the bottom.  They are approximately 1" in diameter.  These are all in wonderful condition - gold 3 part buttons with a single shank in the back, marked "Scovill Mfg Co, Waterbury".  A wonderful piece of US history (and the state of Maine).
