Mostly Block letter buttons (I & A, not to many C) and eagle buttons. If you look at the Library of Congress photos of dead CS soldiers in Petersburg and the Alsop farm, every visible button is a eagle button and most jackets are Richmond Depot issue. The exception would be the P-Tait jacket whose buttons are cut off and another picture where the buttons cannot be identified.
