Considered the “workhorse” of Civil War issue bayonets, this is the standard socket bayonet of the infantry issue rifle musket. As such it surely was the most widely carried type of the “Great American Conflict”. That is where we part from the usual in this instance though as this example surely falls in the category of highly desirable among American bayonet and Confederate arms and accoutrement collectors. In addition to it’s unusually nice original condition, this example sports the bold and distinctive “G” designation of the Georgia armory on it’s socket and an additional lighter but clearly discernable “G” of Georgia ownership on its shank just above the standard U. S. marks. The “G” mark denoting ownership of the State of Georgia is of a distinct and clearly discernable style to knowledgeable scholars and collectors of Confederate memorabilia. Highly desirable in any example, the Georgia designation is usually limited to import weapons of the Confederate state with examples generally found on the British Model 1853 Cavalry saber and Enfield .577 caliber rifle-musket. This example on a bayonet from federal stores is extremely rare and desirable. An outstanding offering for the advanced investor / collector.
