Confederate Virginia Silver Gilt Braid Embtoidered Kepi Virginia State buttons and “Va.” embroidery work This medium blue kepi is a Confederate Virginia hat through and through. In overall superb condition, this wool kepi has excellent Virginia State seal buttons at each side of the chin leather strap. The finely embroidered ‘Va.’ inside an elaborate embroidered silver thread wreath makes this one of the finest examples of Virginia headgear in existence. The tall crown makes the hat even more distinctive and desirable for any major collection. The maker’s name of “John A. Baker – 63 Walker Street” appears lightly stamped inside the crown. A Virginia showpiece. $25,000
