This packet of ammunition holds 10 rounds of .69 cal. buck & ball paper cartridges. The packet is unopened. Made at the "Frankford Arsenal" in Pennsylvania, dated 1859 for the Model 1842 smoothbore percussion musket. "Made of Hazards Powder". This would be the last .69 cal. musket ammunition made before advancing to a rifled musket in .58 cal. for the civil war by the Union Army. However, a sub-contractor moved his gunworks to South Carolina in the 1850s and likely saw service for the Confederate Army as well. In very good condition. No sales to New York, New Jersey, California, Hawaii, and Alaska. No international sales. Please see photo for details. Additional shipping fees apply. 3.75 in. X 2.5 in. X 1.125in. From the Sherman collection.
