    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 BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA / RECOVERED ON CULP'S HILL - A pair of fire melted lead bullet fragments, measuring 1 1/4" by 7/8" and smaller one measuring 7/8" by 3/4", total weight 0.8 ounce, so slightly less than the weight of a complete round.

    These
    artifacts were
    recovered in the Culp's Hill area on private property many years ago by a Gettysburg area man. There is still private property on Culp's Hill to the present day.
    Culp's Hill, although overshadowed today by the battle on the Union left on July 2nd and by Pickett's Charge on July 3rd, saw intense fighting, particularly on the morning of July 3rd. It could easily be argued that the fighting here was, perhaps, the key to the entire battle.
    A provenance letter will be included.
    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!
