Just Curious ?

[Davers]

I know Dropped Civil War Bullets look/ Display well , but does anyone like to dig fired ones?

I find fired ones around Skirmish sites and it seems they have a little more "Personal" history.
ie. the Soldier Took the time to load it , Muzzle or Breach, & also what or who did it hit.

And as far as $ worth they seem to be a little over their lead weight.

Would a Gettysburg squashed minie , be worth more than a fired minie found somewhere else?
I suppose one would have to prove [Somehow] where the bullet was found.

Want one of the rare fired ones?Find two welded from impact that hit nose on nose.I saw one that had the imprint from the weave of the cloth imbedded in it from a hit.
