Is that the original clasp? I would like to see a close up of the clasp, if possible.

what are its dimensions please, and I suppose the 2 D stands for 2nd Division, I hate to assume anything, with that said it is the American Cavalry ;)

Well, what would you offer? Considering the condition of the piece and the fact that I'm paying for shipping, I think I have it reasonably priced...I don't think I can change the GIN after bids are placed...??? Thank-you for your interest!! :)

Well, I wish you luck, Ron! :) Don't feel like the lone ranger when it comes to getting outbid in the last seconds--I'm sure all of us have lost auctions that way...what I do now is determine my absolute maximum bid and put it in; if someone outbids that, they can have it! :) It's worked well for me so far...

Wildman, I don't have a clue as to what unit the pin is from; I suppose I should have researched it online like you mentioned. Thank-You for your interest, and I wish you luck!! :)

After doing a bit of research, I believe this pin is from Second Cavalry, D Company. The First Cavalry was Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders. Hope this helps--happy researching!! :)
