Today's CS button & other relics!

:hello: Got out today to a water area and scored these. The CS infantry is a local made, with the backmark "E.M.L & C./ Richmond.Va." All of the finds came from water and mud and the lack of patina is typical in general for water recovered brass relics---with some exceptions of course.
The harmonica was an interesting find--usually they are in pieces. The baby's porcelain teacup is kind of cool also! HH & thanks for looking!
Keith

Sweet "I" button. That harmonica is awesome. I have only found reeds. That thing is in amazing shape. Is it CW period as well?

The Hohner company started making harmonicas in 1857. I cant say for certain whether this one is CW era, as the site goes well beyond the CW. This model does look like a Hohner from my research. HH!
