    - A relic condition Civil War lead rifle bullet fragment, possibly fired and damaged, possibly accidentally or intentionally sliced. It is difficult to tell with this one - Recovered from the Battlefield of Antietam. Unfortunately, Reger gave no specific find location at Antietam
    This artifact comes out of the collection of William A. Reger who lived in Berks County, Pennsylvania and relic hunted at a variety of sites from the late 1950s to the mid 1970s. He established an enormous collection of artifacts, which were acquired after his death in Reading, Pennsylvania in 2011.
    A provenance letter will be included.
    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 are now Federally owned, or owned by the Trust, were 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.
