If a person had a confederate calvary uniform and a saddle (in pretty good shape, taken care of but obviously used) that were authentic what would the actual Value be?

A big pricing factor would be if you could document the history of the uniform and saddle.

I agree. The research behind whose uniform it was, what campaigns it was in...

I have seen a generals uniform for $220,000 dollars for sale, the more you know about the person who wore it the higher the prices goes.

They are both family heirloms so they are geniune, and the rider of the saddle can be namend, He is also the wearer of the uniform. I dont know his rank, but am trying to encourage the gal to get it apprasied and insured.

Im working on the pic i did find out the saddle is insured and appraised at 700,000 The name of the soilder was Rollan Mckinney from Abillen. i hope to get as pic of the saddle via phone soon, but the gals computer is down. I dont belive I am being strung along here, She also says they have done the research on the guy and has his military history.
