COCKADE EAGLE, INFANTRY, C. 1836

_USNM 60377-M (S-K 133). Figure 155._

[Illustration: FIGURE 155]

As an example of more than a dozen known variants of the eagle, this

silver-on-copper specimen is illustrated to show the general form and

size of Militia cockade eagles that became distinct types in the

1830's and continued until about 1851. All such eagles were obviously

stock patterns.
