The University of Georgia Also Has the Great Seal of the Confederacy


The Hargrett  Rare Book and Manuscript Library at the Univ. of Georgia also has the Great Seal of the Confederacy.

The site shows a photo of it and  the inscription by it.  I am not sure if this is the original or a copy of it.  The site doesn't say.

The inscription reads:

Presented to the University of Georgia
Memorial Day April 26, 1945
in memory of
JAMES EVERARD BLACKSHEAR
Youth Soldier in the Army of
CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA

--Old Secesh
