This small bullet was recovered in the battle field at Cloyds Moutain. The confederates would load these small bullets in the gun first then put in the larger "two" ringer bullet. This in turn would hit more objects or people as the smaller bullets spread after fired.
The dime was not recovered, just to show size of bullet.
This is my hunting buddy Tom. He has permission to hunt these fields where the battle took place.
