I've been researching the correct buttons for my New York State Jacket, it currently was supplied with eagle buttons without any cuff buttons , I've since looked at some of the more authentic vendors reproductions and they all seem to have state buttons with (2) cuff buttons on each sleeve. I want to change the eagles for state and add cuff buttons, but then I was reading 'Archealogical Perspectives ...' book and noticed in Chapter 4 that the discovered NY Irish Brigade graves in 1988 at Antietam contained Eagle buttons, the quantities suggesting NYS Jackets and records indicate that this was what they were outfitted with.Which buttons would be correct? Thanks for any help
