We will be at the Baltimore Antique Arms Show this coming weekend -- March 22-23. Because we have the heaviest inventory of anyone, they put us in the far back corner. Head straight for table Z24 and don't spend all your money before you get there. Odds are high that we will have more Civil War artillery projectiles in our one remote outpost than the rest of the show combined.

Location Recovered: Spanish Fort, AL

Description:
Out of approximately 30,000 bullets recovered at Spanish Fort and Fort Blakelely in a lifetime of digging, only 3 pairs were "collided bullets." I had set these aside for 3+ months at the request of a dealer, but he didn't have much success selling his other pair at the marked up rpice so backed out. Now the last of them is available to everyone (he got one and I kept one).

These are really hard to photograph well. They look to have been going in the same general direction so probably were fired into a headlog or something similar.

True collided bullets are a bucket list item on most bullet collectors' wishlists. Here is a rare opportunity to get one that is right as rain.
