The Borman fuse is identified as Confederate by the large numbers (still visible) on the fuse index plate, the single wrench slot, and no threads on top of the fuse plate. The fuse on this shell was not set and most likely dropped. This piece was identified in John Geiselman's collection by his museum listing.

Here is an original, Federal 3" Type 2 Hotchkiss Common Shell recovered at Reynold's Woods shortly after the Battle of Gettysburg. This wonderful Gettysburg relic is complete with its lead band sabot, brass Hotchkiss fuse adapter and iron base cup intact. Used primarily in the 3" Ordnance Rifle, this type projectile was purchased in larger numbers than any other in the Hotchkiss series. The tip of the nose is slightly more blunt than the previous common shell. Three, deep, flame grooves cut through the shell body, sabot and base, greatly weakening the piece and causing many to be found missing sabot and base cup.

This artifact is a circular base plate for a Confederate Mullane shell projectile and it was found in Pitzer's Woods area of the Gettysburg battlefield. One part of the Dr. Hill collection here, this saucer-shaped specimen, sometimes referred to as a disc-sabot, is 3" in diameter and is made of brass or copper. Sabot has four, ½" diameter holes drilled through its base with three holes around the outer circumference and one hole in the center. The outer holes aligned the three iron studs or pins on the actual Mullane shell while the center hole in the sabot plate was for the central bolt on the shell.

Here is a fired and recovered U.S. 3-Inch Hotchkiss Canister Sabot Cup. It was found in relic condition in Gettysburg at the Little Round Top. Moderately pitted and encrusted with orange dirt, it measures approximately 3 inches in diameter and approximately ¾ inches tall. This sabot was made of lead and was ordinarily marked on the bottom with the patent date; the lettering is not readable on this piece. This sabot joined the canister at the groove at the base of the canister. Because this sabot was lead, it took to the rifling of the gun easily; for canisters, this was not good because the iron balls spread rapidly, thereby, reducing short-range effectiveness. This piece was identified in John Geiselman's collection as found at Little Round Top.

Six of the seven canister balls are still tightly secured to the base via residue of the packing compound. All iron pieces retain a light coating of surface rust. Never cleaned.

This model 1861 cartridge box is in good condition with light storage dirt over the entire surface. All seams on the box are very good. Both belt loops and sling loops are present, as are both roller buckles at bottom. The brass finial is also present. Implement pocket is complete but a bit stiff.

Both tins are present but one tin is missing its top layer. The interesting thing about this box and what makes it possibly Confederate used is that the outer flap has been cut off. This is something we have seen before on Confederate used boxes and it is doubtful that a Federal soldier would be allowed to cut up his cartridge box. This cartridge box is from the Nerbert Olier collection and was found at Spangler's Spring. Artifact is identified on John Geiselman's museum listing.

Excellent, untouched battlefield pickup. This box is in great shape with just a little stiffness throughout. Outer flap has US box plate still attached with original leather tab.

This Model 1858 smoothside canteen has a nice patina over the entire body. All three sling keepers are present and the spout is made of pewter. The spout is unusual in that it seems to be a little taller than is normally seen. One side of the canteen has three slight indentations while the opposite side has one that is very small. The stopper on this canteen is missing but would have been held in place by the use of a string instead of a chain, as there is no hole on the sling keeper to indicate a chain was present. This is a very nice example of an early battlefield pick up. This artifact is identified on John Geiselman's museum listing.

This excavated artifact of Southern horse equipment was found on the 1863 East Cavalry Field in Gettysburg shortly after the battle. The medium size, heavy brass spur is unmarked, but strong and well made with the distinct CS style neck.

Never cleaned. This rebel spur exhibits light surface dirt and has a light patina overall. A fine, early pickup from the Battle of Gettysburg, this Confederate spur is identified in John Geiselman's collection by his contemporary inscribed labels.

This spur has a very pleasing patina on all surfaces but yet the detail is still visible. The outside band of the spur has scrollwork just behind each keeper and under the rowel arm. The design has a circle in the middle with teardrop shaped ovals radiating out from the center. Between these designs, along the length of the back strap are slanted vertical lines.
