Gettysburg Civil War Relic Found West of Reynolds Woods Fired Bullet Rosensteel

Description

We are working as partners in conjunction with Gettysburg Relics to offer some very nice American Civil War relics for sale. The owner of Gettysburg Relics was the proprietor of Artifact at 777 on Cemetery Hill in Gettysburg for a number of years, and we are now selling exclusively on eBay.
The Rosensteel collection of artifacts are not recent recoveries, and pre-date the 1960s. They are not unlimited and when they are sold out, we cannot replace them.The park still owns the majority of relics once owned by the Rosensteel Family.
THE BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA / RECOVERED IN THE WILLOUGHBY RUN AREA JUST WEST OF REYNOLD'S WOODS & MCPHERSON'S RIDGE, this particular small grouping was described as having been found in the 'Woods and Stream by the Golf Course' (there are very few pieces from this grouping).
I was just on the Golf Course golf cart trail, which is now park owned, and the battlefield can be seen through the trees from this location. The McPherson Barn is visible from this location.

- FROM THE ROSENSTEEL FAMILY COLLECTION -
A fired .577 caliber 3-Ring Bullet which must have hit very soft ground, as it barely looks fired besides the obvious marks along the body of the bullet from the barrel of the rifle
This fired bullet was found in the area just west of Reynolds' Woods and McPherson's Ridge - the area from Willoughby Run up to the modern Country Club Road. This particular small grouping of artifacts were described as having been found in the 'Woods and Stream by the Golf Course' (there are very few pieces from this grouping).
This artifact was a part of the collection of Iva Rosensteel, sister of George Rosensteel (founder of the Gettysburg National Museum and the famous Electric Map) so the provenance could not be better. This is the first time that this artifact is being offered for public sale and I feel very privileged in the opportunity to offer it. The Rosensteels were, of course, the most famous artifact collecting family in Gettysburg and the bulk of the relics on display at today's Gettysburg National Park Visitor Center come from the Rosensteels.
A provenance letter will be provided with this relic.
We include as much documentation with the relics as we possess. This includes copies of tags if there are original identification tags 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.
Thank you for viewing!
