Description
Enhance your relic collection with this exceptionally clean, excavated Civil War three-ring Minié ball. This dropped infantry bullet survived the war unfired, escaping the barrel of a Springfield or Enfield rifled musket to be safely recovered from the earth generations later.
What sets this particular specimen apart is its spectacular chalk-white patina. The smooth, bone-white oxidation covers the entirety of the bullet, beautifully highlighting its sharp cast lines, three distinct grease grooves, and hollow base. It is a textbook example of a dropped Civil War projectile, offering an uncompromised look at the ammunition that defined the era’s infantry combat.
