I'm surviving, thanks ;-)
as to "coy", if you look at Brit (etc) equipment, arms & accouterments during the F&I War and Rev War, alot of times you will see this mark with the unit designation.
Its short for "company" (as in "Bradt's Coy").
You have to forgive me, sometimes, as a living historian/reenactor I sometimes forget that not everyone out there is familiar with this ;-)
Thanks for asking ~
"Champ"
