GAR hat from Heritage auction
I generally stay away from this sort of thing, but this one's genuine, although I don't know if the 1875 auction house date is accurate. Bottom is from an 1890 Ward's catalogue.
From auction: Remains of maker's label from Lynn, Mass. Hat cord is that of a Civil War Officer with gold bullion acorns and slide with black mesh. Stamped brass GAR wreath surmounted by 5 (Mass. Post #5 was in Lynn) on black wool felt backing, affixed to the front. A black ostrich feather plume affixed at the side.
