    US Pattern 1859 Austrian Bayonet Scabbard - Inventory Number: BAY 258 / SOLD

    A beautiful example of the US Pattern 1859 scabbard had an attached belt frog that was sewn in place and reinforced with two copper rivets where the leather that wrapped around the scabbard throat attached to the frog. The scabbard also included a brass final tip at the end that was secured by two copper or brass pins on the reverse. Four-pin tips, secured with two pins on the front and two pins on the rear of the final, would not be adopted until the February of 1863 pattern scabbard was adopted.
