These are original .50 Caliber bullet for the Smith Cavalry and Artillery carbines found in Civil War Campsites. The Smith carbine used the rubber casing as well as the metallic casing on the cartridges. These are the lead bullet portion of the cartridge and we know they are the tougher to find versions that were used on the rubber case cartridge because of the bullet form. These rubber case style bullets have the more pronounced upper ring. This pattern is illustrated as figure #49 in the McKee & Mason bullet book. They have been excavated from camp and battlesites throughout the South. The price quoted is for one original excavated Smith carbine bullet like the ones pictured.
