Confederate Virginia State Seal Button Stickpin

Description

Confederate Virginia State Seal Button Stickpin

Fine Confederate-themed stickpin constructed from a Virginia state seal coat button mounted to a long period pin shaft for wear or display. The face features the classic Virginia state motto, “Sic Semper Tyrannis,” surrounding the well-known allegorical figure standing over the fallen tyrant.

The reverse is marked “Canfield Bro. & Co.” with the original shank removed and professionally mounted to the pin stem. The button retains an attractive untouched patina with pleasing detail visible throughout the device and lettering.

An appealing Southern patriotic accessory likely altered during the Civil War vs an immediate post-war veterans’ period, combining strong visual appeal with desirable Virginia Confederate association. Displays exceptionally well and would make an excellent addition to any Civil War button, jewelry, or Confederate display collection.
