Cool 1890's Spanish-American War Sweetheart Pin of US Army Corps of Engineers Soldier

Cool 1890's Spanish American War sweetheart pin of the United States Army Corps of Engineers with the soldier's image in celluloid. The center image shows the soldier wearing his cap with visible Engineer Corps badge and the outer edge is a lovely, coiled embellishment.

Circa 1890's

Approximately 1-1/8" in diameter

Gilt brass, celluloid

Horizontal pin with "C" type catch

None.

This is from a US Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. MFX16 LEEX10/16

7 (Very Fine): The sweetheart pin shows minor to moderate wear, much of the plated details remain, the photo is remarkable, overall very fine condition.
