Here is a Very Nice Dropped 3-Ring Minie for .577 Rifle ! I’m not positive which MM number this is. It almost has a “foreign mold” look to it, but also somewhat resembles MM400. It’s definitely for .577 as it mics out at about .568-.570 diameter by 1.035 tall. It has a nice mostly white patina with one chip on the bottom of the cavity walls, but no digger damage. The cavity walls are quite thick and the conical cavity medium depth. Much more snowy white in hand. A Fine Dug .577 Bullet ! Recovered Prairie Grove, Arkansas.

Here is a Nice Dropped .50 Caliber Gallager Carbine Bullet ! It shows a nice white patina with no digger dinks or damage. The lead composition in these Gallager bullets must not be pure, as they are often dug in a crumbling state, not retaining their profile very well, but this one does. Recovered Cross Timber Hollows.

Here is a Super Nice Dropped .54 Caliber Foreign Mold Bullet with Plug Base ! I believe this is MM435 in the bullet book. There is a raised teat in the very bottom of the plug.

Here is an Unusual Short Little .54 Caliber Minie !It has 3 fairly pronounced rings that sweep up, and a deep conical cavity. The crude cavity walls are quite eccentric, thick on one side and thin on the other. The bullet measures about .895 of an inch tall by .535 diameter. It has a dark brown woodsy patina that is actually much slicker than it appears in my picture. I have personally only ever excavated these little bullets in one of Confederate General Thomas Hindman’s camps south of Prairie Grove, Arkansas, but this one was recovered by Chris Whitehead at Prairie Grove. A Neat Unusual Little Confederate .54 Caliber Minie!

Here is a Super Nice Dug MM538 Williams Cleaner Type II Bullet ! The Type II is less common than the shorter Type III often seen. This one is a near perfect drop showing no digger damage, great definition on the rings and a super nice mostly white patina. I originally said this was recovered in Cross Timber Hollows near the Arkansas/Missouri State Line, but the digger Chris Whitehead straightened me out, saying he recovered this one at Fort Powhatan, Virginia. A Super Nice Williams Type II Cleaner Bullet !
