I found this at a Civil War camp site in Virginia while hunting with Vernon 2 months ago. Would you like to help me find out who this is? :shrug: Myst

This came from a site that was used by the south and the north. I found it about 10 inches down. I believe it is made of copper. The stamping was done with one letter at a time. It is a name tag of some kind and it might be from a Civil War "Saw bones" (Doctor}. Vernon found a rusty meat cleaver not to far from where this was found. If anyone out there in forum land wants to see if we can find out what, and who this is, the help would be much appriciated. The photo is pretty clear, but iv you have trouble making it out, it says "DR. R.D. MOLLWAIN" and below the frst line is the letter"F". I wonder if the F could be for company F or somthing like that. In Alabama the F could be for "Fizzision"
