CRBeery Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 Here is an interesting hat badge that I picked up a couple months ago. It is a kriegerverein piece from NY. I know there were many such organizations that were popular until the war. Any one else have these types of thing in thier collection?

CRBeery Posted July 25, 2015 Author Posted July 25, 2015 I really don't know what the second letter is. It was in a case a at gun show and caught my interest. I'm sure there is a collector out there that is into this type of item and has some period documentation. Seems like there were many groups in NY with members numbering in the thousands.
