Stamped soldier's identification badge. Obverse stamped: "Robert Mc Pherson / Roslyn L.I. / Wagon. Mast / 5th Reg. / Exc Brig." Reverse cast "War of 1861. / Engaged in the Above Battles" with the center stamped: "Yorktown / Williamsburg / Fair Oaks / 7 Days / Before Richmond / Bristow Station / Bull Run / Chantilla / Fredericksburg".
Robert McPherson enlisted on 1 June 1861 as a wagoneer, interestingly stamped "wagon master" on his ID disc. A spectacular disc enhanced by the rare inclusion of many battles.
At the outbreak of war, U.S. Representative Daniel Sickles heavily recruited soldiers from New York City, partly in an effort to rehabilitate his image after shooting his wife's lover and the subsequent trial. He was successful in recruiting thousands, which were organized into the 70th, 72nd, 73rd, and 74th New York Infantry regiments, which comprised the Excelsior Brigade.

Fleischer's Auctions packages and ships most items in-house. We make an effort to ensure the lowest shipping rate possible while still meeting our package safety standards.
Large items, framed pieces, and any item that we are unable to package and ship in-house will be marked in the catalog as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service. Successful bidders winning items marked as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service are responsible for paying the third party directly. We are happy to offer complimentary drop-off service to local third-party packing/shipping companies in Columbus, Ohio. Once an item is dropped off and no longer in our possession, Fleischer's Auctions is not liable for the item's safe handling or shipment to the successful bidder.
