This is a .58 caliber “minie ball” for rifle muskets. This is the regulation three-groove bullet with a cone cavity that was developed in the mid-1850s. Of northern arsenal manufacture, this bullet has a “US” in the base. This “US” was formed by a punch during manufacturing.
Bullet features nice, smooth white patina with a couple of minor chips on one side. A very nice example of this variety of bullet. [jet]
