Sold for: $135.00

Original era manufacture. This example is very similar to the classic US M1874 issue cup, except that the body is drawn, rather than made with a soldered bottom section. The riveted handle has U.S. stamped into the front of the bow. Even steel patina finish. Normal age and wear. Thanks to our friend and fellow collector, Ken McPheeters for providing the information on the development of this cup on his site, Mc Pheeters Antique Militaria. Thanks also to John P. for bringing this to our attention. We all stand on one anothers shoulders in this hobby, no one of us knows everything.
