civil war bullet

Can someone id this bullet for me please? I found it along with some other 3 ringers.

It looks like a 69 caliber belgian bullet that was forced loaded and by that I mean that the gun was probably dirty from multi firing and they had to push very hard on top of the bullet with the ramrod and that is what made the impression.

Bill is that the same as being double loaded? I have CW bullets that have been what I call 'double loaded' and the tops look like that. Breezie

Double loaded is where a Minie bullet is loaded on top of another and will also leave a depression , which this also may be the case.
