Great Brass .36 Cal. Multi-Ring Bullet Mold w/ "H. Sutter" Maker's Mark
Never seen one like this before, so it's got to be rather rare and unique! This multi-ring rifled .36 cal. bullet mold is complete, in great condition, with a beautiful and pleasing mellow-mustard brass patina. Best of all, it has the maker's mark of "H. Sutter" vividly stamped on one of the handles. The mold cavity is very crisp. I've never seen a bullet like this before--obviously for either a revolver or country/picket rifle of some sort. Regardless, it'll make a fine and unique addition!

Nice Dug Example of the Rare .46 Cal. Multi-Ring Sharps Minnie
Dug near New Madrid, Missouri
ID'ed Exclusively to the 1st Wisconsin Cavalry
Here's the last one I got! Nice displaying specimen of one of the most desirable and rarest cavalry ammunition. This is amongst the batch that were dug in the 1st Missouri Cavalry camp just outside of New Madrid, Missouri. Only the 1st Wisconsin was in these areas of the Trans-Mississippi Theater with the .46 cal. carbines. They were later transferred across the "Big River" very late in the war, and actually assisted in the capture of President Jefferson Davis. This minnie' does have a few dings from the plow on one side, but the other side displays perfectly.

I have these 14 perfect specimens of exclusively Confederate .69 balls (only the Confederates had .69 smoothbores at Champion Hill), dug decades ago by a local digger, Elmo Allen.

Champion Hill fired minnie's, dug by my friend, Lonnie Bell.
There are over 25 to choose from--some looked almost unfired, while others are smashed flat like a mushroom. These were dug along Lee's Alabama Brigade battleline, and Barton's Georgia Brigade battleline. Some are Confederate, but most are Yankee minnie's. I sell a lot of these to collectors who like to have an ID'd piece of the Champion Hill Battle, especially a bullet fired "in anger" and earnest at their foe in the heat of the great battle. All dug by Lonnie on his property.
