Civil War Bullet - Buck N Ball Cartridge Partially Melted-Nice ~ TL8262 $40 Money Both pieces are in excellentFor your consideration one McKee & Mason 551 Thomas handbook 183 Buck & Ball cartridge (round). This round laid too close to a camp fire & was partially melted (fused) together. There are no glues no dirt mixed in to hide something just partially melted lead. Outlines of all 3 0. 32 caliber buck balls can be seen. I rated in excellent dug & partially melted condition. The patina is a near perfect white color. Always check the NEW ARRIVALS category
