    THE BATTLE OF THE WILDERNESS, VIRGINIA - From the Earl Gooding Collection - Recovered on New Years Eve - December 31, 1967 -
    A Relic dropped .577 Caliber 3-Ring Rifle Bullet
    This
    dropped .577 Caliber 3-Ring Rifle Bullet,
    was found on New Year's Eve - December 31, 1967 on the Wilderness, Virginia battlefield.
    This artifact comes from the collection of Earl Gooding, a southern Maryland relic hunter who kept his finds from each expedition in small boxes marked with the location and often the date. In most cases, it appeared as if he never opened the boxes again once they were stored away (they were still filled with dirt etc.)
    A provenance letter will be included.
    We include as much documentation with the relics as we possess. This includes copies of tags if there are original identification tags or maps, as well as a signed letter of provenance with the specific recovery information.
    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 is now Federally owned, or owned by the Trust, was 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.
    Thank you for viewing!
