THE BATTLE OF FIVE FORKS, VIRGINIA - FROM THE WILLIAM A. REGER COLLECTION - A Relic condition Dropped .577 Caliber 3-Ring Rifle Bullet
This bullet was recovered at the site of the Battle of Five Forks by William A. Reger, a Berks County, Pennsylvania relic hunter who meticulously documented his finds with type-writer typed tags. In this case, the tag was the only one for the grouping, and is not included, however, a copy of the tag, as well as a provenance letter, will be included. Reger passed away in Reading, Pennsylvania in 2011.
The Battle of Five Forks, fought on April 1st, 1865, was one of the last major battles of the Siege of Petersburg. The Union attack at Five Forks which was a great success, gave Grant control of the Confederate Army's last major supply line into the besieged city and set the stage for the attacks on the following day which would break the Confederate lines.
We include as much documentation with the relics as we possess. This includes copies of tags if there are original identification tag or maps, as well as a signed letter of provenance with the specific recovery information.
All of the collections that we are offering for sale are guaranteed to be authentic, and are either older recoveries, found before the 1960s when it was still legal to metal detect battlefields, or were recovered on private property with permission. Some land on Battlefields that is now Federally owned, or owned by the Trust, was acquired after the items were recovered. We will not sell any items that were recovered illegally, nor will we sell any items that we suspect were recovered illegally.
