 12 Reassembled Spencers. These excavated, reassembled Spencers
were dug in Central Virginia and are fairly common finds in our many Civil War sights.
As time goes by, it becomes much more difficult to excavate intact specimens. These
authentic Spencer rounds were used in the first successful repeating rifle ever mass
produced. It was the success of manufacturing the brass cartridge that made the
Spencer a working and successful firearm.

 Civil War Confederate 16 gauge pinfire shotgun shell.
This piece was dug in central Virginia. The word "Paris" can be seen below
the "16". There is lettering around the top rim above the "16", but it is
pretty faint. It looks as if part of it is " arrio ever o". There may be an
"s" before the first "e".

 Confederate .69 caliber Belgian Minie Ball. This Minie appears
to have a heavy impression where the ball was forced into the bore while loading.
Constant firing would cause heavy powder build-up requiring a lot of force to be
applied to the ramrod in loading, creating this type of mark. This is M&M #318
and T&T #189E. Thomas and Thomas' A Handbook of Civil War Bullets & Cartridges
says this Minie is typical of Southern manufactures and that it "was nose cast" and
is sometimes called a "Belgian" but it is doubtful that it was imported. Unique
with the ramrod mark.

French
Pin-fire Cartridge Guage. This item comes with (eight) 7mm & (eight)
11mm pin-fire cartridges for a revolver. This is a rare and unusual instrument fabricated in brass and
silver plated. This device was used to determine the diameter of a pin-fire cartridge, which was largely
a French device. Inscribed on the gauge are the words, "A Paris Calibre Verifie Brevte S.G.D.G." and
reflect a maker's mark of MF (written together) a wheel and the MF in reverse. I am not sure of the
age but I am estimating the 1850's. There is a slotted scale along the top edge that measures the diameter
of the pin (scale runs from 1-10 and 1-24 with each slot varying in width. On the surface of each side there
are circular indentions in varying sizes (1-8 and 9-21 on the opposite side). This gauge comes with (eight)
11mm pin-fire cartridges that are in great shape. They are stamped on the bottom by the manufacturer, but
I can not quite make out the markings. The (eight) 7mm pin-fire cartridges are similarly preserved and are
marked "7 Eley".Order PN1001 $495.00
