    very nice Fired High Impact .577 or .58 Caliber 3-Ring Rifle Bullet with visible impact marks, likely from hitting one of the numerous rocks or boulders on Little Round Top
    .  Much can be said of this amazing rocky hill, and it is very likely the most popular site on the Battlefield of Gettysburg. This artifact was a part of the collection of Iva Rosensteel-Rider (
    Born in 1887, died in 1964), 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 we 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.
    Thank you for viewing!
