Hey guys, I've dug a handful of Minie balls in the last year, but this one has me scratching my head a bit, partially because of its condition. The bottom is solid rather than hollow and it seems to be .50 caliber. Also, note that there is a ring that sits above the narrowed down area. It unfortunately doesn't show up very well in the pictures, but it is there.
Something has been done to the bullet – cut in half and maybe carved? But despite that, I'm struggling to ID the original bullet. Any suggestions are appreciated!
