Nebulous 24th VA Infantry Green Jacket

Greetings,

I was wondering if any one has information on the Green Jacket from 24th VA Co. C The Carroll Boys. I am a reenactor with the reeactivated 24th, however we've never been able to get more than the statement from the Regimental history that the Jacket was indeed Green.

There are many shades of green in the dye recipes I've found, so if anyone has knowledge about these jackets I would greatly appreciate it.
