Amazingly Rare USMC Officer Model 1877 Cap EGA Badge

This is an amazingly rare Model 1877 United States Marine Corps officer cap EGA (eagle, globe and anchor). This EGA is in a pin-back style with a great old T-style pin. The detailing is very nice, from the textured "oceans" to the delicately looping rope. We are selling a Model 1877 collar EGA separately (please see link at bottom of page for more details).

Circa early 1880s.

Approximately 1-3/8" in height and 1-11/16" in width.

Gilt brass.

Diagonal T-style pin with C catch.

None.

This is from a United States Marine Corps collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VACJJX13 LFGEJX3/13 SCJJJX10/16

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The EGA shows only very light wear.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
