Williams Cleaner Maybe

[Wraith24]

Found this today. Thought it may be a Williams cleaner that was fired. Any idea?

What does the base look like? Does it have a cavity?

[Wraith24]

No there is no cavity that i can see.

I don't think its one of the cleaner types, a type 1 looks the closest but I would think its a carbine variant of some sort. The distortion from firing makes it hard to ID.

Can you give us some measurements and a picture of the base?

 

[Wraith24]

Yes I'll add some in the morning. Thanks for the help.

 

[Wraith24]

More pictures as promised.

Looks like a 58 caliber Sharps variant but the shape just doesn't look right. Try this site: 19th Century Bullet Collection - Tom Henrique Just hit any of the search buttons without adding any more information and it will take you to a list of all the bullets.

On the site I posted a link to scroll to the bottom of the bullet list and look at the Sharps and Hankins.
