I have searched the net for hours now trying to find any information on the insignia that is attached to the scabbard of this very interesting bolo and all that I have found is that it does not match any that I can find, American or Spanish. Here are a few pictures that show a Spanish button and the insignias used by the U.S. during the Civil War and the Indian Wars as well as the one used during the Spanish American war. They all show a single horn or crossed rifles not the double horns shown on the scabbard above. If anyone has any information showing the insignia on the above scabbard and when it was used and who it was used by please post it as this is driving me nutz.
