SELLING TWO FOR ONE MONEY ~ Two Gorgeous Pre Civil War Buckles with
stand up and take notice condition. The rectangular Eagle Buckle is the actual
one pictured in the buckle book. How cool is that . . . You can own a published
buckle today. The other buckle is not famous but very nice. These are
examples that have been excavated in Civil War sites too. Two great pieces
priced right and ready to go.
$885.00
WOUNDED YANKEE ~ Thomas S. Hayes . . . Wounded near Petersburg.
Just got this wonderful Presentation Sword in today. I have a stack of
paperwork and appears to be a hard fought Yankee. The scabbard has
beautiful mounts and very nice engraving on the hilt. The blade has etching
and the only "boo boo" is the scabbard drag is "M.I.A." . . . Could be laying
around Petersburg or in some digger's display case. Very friendly priced . . . . .
. . . . . .
$2,595.00
WHAT TO WEAR ~ This one is ready for action. All the bells and whistles
usually missing or broke are all here and in good condition. The "US" plates are
very nice with pleasing patina and eye appeal. The leather is strong on the
sling and will display great around a display. Tins are still reporting for duty and
even the closure tab is in great shape. Nice box that say some service but
survived in good order.
$895.00
SOMEBODY CALL THE POLICE ~ Pretty Colt Police Model Revolver with
strong condition and eye appeal. The action is flawless with original wood grips.
Scattered silver wash on the trigger guard and nice visible barrel address. All
matching serial numbers . . . Including the wedge. Great example and one you
don't see on the market everyday.
$1,800.00 LAY AWAY
EARLY TIMES ~ Solid Pre Civil War cartridge box with original tins. I believe
this box could have even seen the Mexican War. Not sure if it is US Army or a
State Militia box. Solid box that displays well and could be dressed up if
someone has a cartridge box plate.
$295.00
SPREAD EAGLE ~ Great looking buckle and an example you just can't have
to many of in the display case. Countless Civil War images show Rebs and
Yanks wearing these buckles. This one is priced so good . . . you could afford
to wear it. I was watching the show "Bones" the other night and it looked like the
guy was wearing one of these buckles. REBEL RELIC PRICED TO FLY.
$250.00
PUPPY LOVE ~ Civil War "US" waist belt plate with the "old style" studs. I don't
know who wore it but . . . they wore it. This plate saw some service the face has
"been there done that" wear. Nice solid back with good lead. HUUUUM . . . . . .
This sure would make a nice stocking stuffer for the Civil War Collector.
$275.00
WORLD CLASS DISPLAY ~ You Guys and Gals have probably walked past
this piece at the shows. This was once part of the award winning Confederate
Naval Display. I upgraded the owner of the display with a near mint example
and here is one very nice Confederate Naval Cutlass. Some say Selma Arsenal
. . . Other say this is a Leech & Rigdon product. I say who cares . . . It is
Confederate made and extremely rare on the market. If memory serves me
correct this example was originally sold by Shiloh Relics. Plenty of Confederate
casting flaws and classic traits we love. The guard shows some service and
could be gently moved into place but sure looks beautiful as is and ready for
display. Own a piece of award winning CS Naval at a REBEL RELIC PRICE.
$4,250.00
I GOT A NUMBER #2 ~ LOL . . . Sorry . . . I am having to much fun . . .
Awesome Smith & Wesson revolver with flawless action and visible barrel and
cylinder marks. Very nice Civil War serial number range and gorgeous original
grips. The eye appeal is killer with original finish on the cylinder. The only
possible negative I can find is one screw could be replace and the frame looks
to have been refinished at some point in history. Not sure . . . Priced way below
condition and market.
$725.00
AWESOME ~ One beautiful Confederate waist belt plate with all three hooks
and eye appeal. Wonderful sand casting and some original black enamel
highlighting the magic letters. This is the "spun hook" Army of Tennessee plate
and one you will never need to upgrade. Priced very friendly . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
$3,850.00 lay away
QUALITY AND IDENTIFIED ~ Model 1849 Colt Pocket Model Revolver with all
matching numbers including the wedge. Plenty of original varnish on the wood
grips and light cylinder scene visible. Crisp action and mechanically sound.
Nice barrel address and uncleaned patina. Oh yeah . . . Almost forgot to
mention . . . This keeps getting better . . . Nicely identified to Hiram R. Hunt . . .
Very nicely engraved with some history included . . . I believe with some
research this Identified Colt will only get better . . . Priced cheaper than some of
you might have paid for just a Colt in this condition. If your not buying REBEL
RELICS YOU COULD BE PAYING TO MUCH . . . Who says . . . I say . . . Rebel
$1,850.00
I NEVER PAID HIM NO MIND . . . YOU WERE THERE . . . I COULD HAVE
MISSED . . . . ~ Honest Model 1860 Colt Army .44 caliber Revolver with
flawless action and military cartouched grips. All matching serial numbers
including the wedge. This "smoke wagon, hawg leg, " just popped out of
Alabama and for sure fired in anger and carried but survived well.
$1,650.00 ON HOLD
I LOVE PRETTY THINGS ~ This has to be one of the strongest eye appeal
swords I have ever seen. This beauty has original gold wash, bright etched
blade, solid marine skin wrap and wire, anchors, US, USN, maker marked,
artistic design, US Navy, Civil War 1862 date, and REBEL RELIC PRICE. This
example is just a work of art . . . If you ever wanted just one example of a Civil
War Navy piece this is it. Gorgeous sword that I truly no "BS" will hate to pack
up and send off.
$3,650.00 lay away
WAR TROPHY ~ This one showed up with history . . . . Please read the note
. . . . Picture number #3 . . . . Great looking example and not uncommon to find
honest pieces with married or mismatched tongue and wreath. Some of my
digging buddies promise they have excavated two piece buckles together with
wartime marriages. It makes since . . . Us Rebels are still making do with the
hand dealt to us. Great example that some Yankee thought cool enough to take
home as a . . . Victor goes the spoils . . . Trophy. REBEL RELIC PRICED . . . .
$3,500.00
BABY . . . BABY . . . YOU KNOW YOU CAN GO . . . ~ I love it when they

SLAUGHTER'S FIELD ~ These relics also come with a letter with all the history
. . . Excavated where the 165th New York Infantry (Duryea's Zouaves) charged
across Slaughter's Field at Port Hudson, Louisiana. History and letter with
digger's name go with the plate.
$250.00
IT'S A COLT ~ I really like this Colt "Police" Revolver . . . All matching
numbers including the wedge with flawless action. This is a very nice Civil War
Colt with plenty of original varnish on the grips and visible barrel address. This
one is out of the Kentucky Collection . . . Local Kentucky Southern History.

battles . . . Salem Church, Gettysburg, Brandy Station, Wilderness, Petersburg,
and Cedar Creek . Beautiful Getty's Division 6th Corps silver pin . . . . .
Gorgeous display item from a very hard fought group of Yankees.

BA BA BAD . . . BAD TO THE BONE ~ Extremely nice Confederate Cavalry
Sword with original Confederate brass mounted scabbard. Collectors call this
example "Type #1 Kenansville" early collectors believed this was a product of
The Confederate States Armory in Kenansville, N.C. . . . This type having the
flatter brass cavalry branches and another similar sword having more rounded
branches called the type #2 . . . The sword has strong eye appeal and
wonderful patina with untouched/unmolested condition. The wood handle has
scattered wrap with loss and a blending of wood and wrap. Just gorgeous to
see the original wear on this one. So many swords are being professionally
restored it is nice to see one that is just so pure. The scabbard is awesome with
original brown finish scattered all over the metal. Wonderful brass mounts with
casting flaws and file marks adding the finishing "CS" good looks. You will be
proud to own this example and priced well below recent selling prices . . . You
will not find a nicer one on the market for this REBEL RELIC PRICE.
$5,500.00
GREAT SWORD ~ Powerful condition with stunning eye appeal . . . . . . . . . .
Gorgeous Civil War Staff & Field Officer Sword with bright etched blade and
original marine skin wrap and wire. I absolutely love these swords and this one
has a wonderful brass mounted scabbard . . . No leather to worry about . . . I will
add another picture later of the blade. Priced well below market and eye appeal
. . . . . WORLD FAMOUS REBEL RELIC PRICED . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
$1,650.00 ON HOLD
CAVALRY UP ~ Super nice Model 1859 Cavalry Bit with strong condition and

War Cavalry this one should get you ready to ride.
$295.00
JUST CUTE ~ Awesome example of craftsmanship and beauty . . . I have had
several of these Civil War Officer Spurs and just love them. My gut tells me the
rowel is an old replacement. Wonderful example and priced to move.

LETS PLAY ~ Great example of original Civil War Era Dominoes with original
wood box. Some of the pieces have some wear but majority are great. The
original box is really neat top and bottom slide on and off.

JUST LIKE JESSE JAMES ~ Well, . . . This one showed up with a tale as big
as Texas . . . Reportedly belonged to one of Jesse James' gang riders . . . . . . .
You thought it was just dealers with wild and eventful descriptions . . . The public
is catching on . . LOL . . . This example could have been used during the Civil
War as it was only produced from . . . 1861 - 1863 . . . Due to patent issues
Smith & Wesson shut them down. To further the oral history the State of
Kansas purchased most of these and issued to State Militia. This example of
the . . . E. A. Prescott Revolver has also had some "modifications" . . . Notice
the frame has been "blacksmith" altered to be quick loaded. The cylinder pin
has been "permanently" installed. The action works fine and the original wood
grips look great. The serial number is "74" and a couple of people thought this
could be a prototype but . . . I think not. If it was a prototype it would be worth
much more. The hammer has an old repair also looks blacksmith and the brass
frame looks great with mellow patina. Pretty neat old revolver with condition to
match the history . . . . . .
$575.00 ON HOLD
1861 . . . YES . . . 1861 . . . ~ Could there be a better date for a Civil War
Springfield Musket . . . No, is the short answer. Great looking attic gun with
original everything. Does have light Springfield cartouche and "VP" on barrel.
The lock plate is nice with maker mark and "1861" date. The action is crisp and
the stock is great considering this gun very well could have seen every major
battle in it's area of service. The barrel date is hiding under patina or gone from
service . . . If you love weapons that were in the "sh!%" but survived beautifully .
. . . you will cherish this one. Great example and priced under market . . . If
you can find one on the market. REBEL RELIC PRICED . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

ANOTHER LONDON REBEL ~ The popularity of imported weapons of the
Confederacy is growing . . . The price of "home grown" Confederate Artifacts
has gotten so pricey "joe six pack" is "s.o.l." . . . Kerr and LeMatt Revolvers
have sharply risen in value and demand. I know you have noticed the Enfield
musket and anything marked Isaac, Cambell & Co . . . has really gotten hot.
Here is an imported Officer Sword with brass scabbard that surfaced here in
Tennessee. I am sure a few items have been brought over to take advantage of
our market . . . I have personally talked to people who have brought Kerr
revolvers over here to sell as Civil War Revolvers . . . But they are usually in the
11,000 range and out of our War. This example has honest wear you would
expect to see in a Civil War used weapon. Even the drag on the sword shows
evidence of being dragged. The wrap has wear but still reporting for duty and
the hilt has a snapped branch in the decorative guard. The hilt also looks like it
was purposely custom fit to his hand. The brass scabbard is just gorgeous and
really displays impressive. The blade is full length with etching and strong eye
appeal. The cover of the North South Trader has our subject proudly on the
cover of one of it's issues. Now for the good part . . . . Yep . . . The price . . . .

. . . . honest service wear that I like. Just a honest obviously saw service but still

march on to new adventure.

looks like a Colt wedge. The original grips look awesome with plenty of original

SCARCE MODEL ~ Here is an example we don't sneak up on everyday . . . . .
Colt Pocket Navy ".36" caliber Revolver . . . . These Colts are scarce in the
original design as many were converted to percussion. All serial numbers match
including the wedge. Production started in 1862 . . . I will update with exact
year of production tomorrow. The action works fine and the only "boo boo" is
the former owner cleaned it up. These guns were very popular and well used .
. . . The patina could be enhanced but will darken back over time naturally.
The barrel address is visible but spotty and the cylinder has serial numbers and
some faint scene. Priced to ride off into the sunset.
