A couple of days ago a relative traded a $25 air rifle for the canteen in the photo. It's an 1858 smoothside and according to the guy he got it from it was found at Manassas over 40 years ago. It has E Hanford scratched on the spout, probably the name of the soldier who it belonged to as there was an E Hanford in a PA regiment. If it's authentic that was a pretty fair trade.
