3. Of all Civil War memorabilia, CSA stuff goes for more money. Same goes for NAZI stuff...

That's how the market has been for years.

Ever watch PBS's Antiques Roadshow? When Civil War stuff is brought in, the appraiser usually mentions that even where comparable items are compared the CSA stuff goes for more. Same seems to apply for NAZI materiel as well.

The item I missed was a single-shot .12 ga made by "Iver-Johnson Gun & Cycle Works." Poured steel, marked "Nitro Express," it was in VG condition for $100.
