1913 Chattanooga, Tennessee United Confederate Veteran Medal

1913 United Confederate Veterans Reunion Medal – Chattanooga, Tennessee
 
Original 1913 United Confederate Veterans (UCV) reunion medal issued for the annual gathering held in Chattanooga. This badge would have been worn by a Confederate veteran attending the 1913 reunion, making it a direct artifact of early 20th-century Southern veteran commemoration.
 
The medal features classic United Confederate Veterans design elements, including crossed Confederate flags and reunion identification specific to the 1913 Chattanooga encampment. These reunion badges were typically produced for attendees and are highly collectible today, particularly when tied to a specific year and location.
 
Condition:
The badge and ribbon remain in decent overall condition considering their age (over 100 years old). The metal shows expected wear from handling and age. Much of the original color in the Confederate flags has worn away, which is common for these painted examples. Despite this, the medal retains strong display appeal and solid historical character.
