Skip to main contentDescriptionArkansas State Seal coat button, likely worn on a Confederate frock coat. Circular and convex in shape with image of lady liberty standing atop a shield. This image is circumscribed by the text, "Arkansas Regnant Populi". The front of the button is clean without wear and significant luster. The reverse of the button is of tarnished brass.
