<p>[QUOTE=&quot;adriaspiess, post: 49312, member: 269&quot;]Thanks for all the replies. Whether an original piece or not, it certainly is interesting. There is a significant amount of age and patina to the piece so I certainly don&#039;t think it is a modern reproduction. Regardless, I purchase items for resale and I just don&#039;t want to misrepresent the item to potential collectors/buyers. My suspicion is that it is either an original piece or reproduction piece that was stamped by 76th Pennsylvania Regiment reenactors who likely enjoy the colorful dress of the Zouaves during the Civil War. I will say I learned a great deal about the volunteer Zouaves that I had no idea existed during the Civil War.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
