1853 3 Center....Antietam Find!!!

[civilman1]

It's been a pretty long day,met up with Tymcmurray and Monkeyboy today,hit the new site we researched where Ty hit his first Box plate last Sat.....Not even into his next Sat. he find's his second Box Plate.....Enough of him ,check his post out!!!.We said our goodbye's,MB had to hit it,Ty just scored on his second plate so I said I was going to hit the Field's at Antietam on the way home.....Glad I did,The field I'm waiting on hasn't been cut yet so I went to the strip of wood's I found and Eagle Button and the pre CW "flower" button at last week.,low and behold I thought I had a super small flat button when the other side showed the Big C with the III in the center.....Talk about doing back flip's,I was pumped.....It look's like The "Play Money" you'd find.....I've got a percussion cap also found on the field's today.The "pulled" .58 is probably the most extreme pulled I've ever found.Enjoy My Friend's.....

Cool beans dude. It makes you wonder if that bullet just dropped off trajectory of if someones body slowed it down. Nice find what ever happened.

 

[MonkeyBoy]

HA! with the 3 center I forgot all about the bullet! Cleaned up nice, so?? it does not look at all fired in the pic? I guess he did jam that puppy down the barrel with a mallet!!! That is the best pull I've ever seen!!
