[CIVIL WAR]. Federal percussion cap pouch attributed to Co. C, 165th New York Infantry, "2nd Duryea's Zouaves."
Cap pouch with "square" outer flap bearing applied brass letter and numerals "C / 165" (crazing and cracking to leather throughout, with a few punctures to inner flap and pouch; lacking wool and pick).
