Unless you have provenance, that can be verified. Regarding it's history of ownership, over the last 150+ years. All it is, is a Greener Sergeants rifle.

I'm not a spelling nazi, but a guy who touts himself as an expert on weaponry but doesn't know the difference between ordinance and ordnance!
Anyway, this book can help you with known Confederate markings.
