This is a .50 caliber copper rimfire cartridge. One of many profiles and sizes experimented with at the Frankford Arsenal following the Civil War. The search was for the most appropriate bullet, cartridge, and powder charge for new .50 caliber Springfield rifles.

Long lead bullet with two grooves. Copper rimfire case with no headstamp. Information written on case with marker (easily removed). Very good condition.
