Confederate Colt bullet for revolving rifle or pistol in .44 caliber. Recently recovered on private property with permission in the Bee’s Creek Confederate trench line near Coosawhatcie,South Carolina,where the Historic Battle of Tulifinny occurred. Beautiful slick brown patina from the black swampy soil. See all photos including those of the recovery site.
The Battle of Tulifinny was an attempt by New York and US Marines to disable the Charleston and Savannah Railroad. It was the only time in American history that an entire US college fought in battle. The Charleston Corps of Cadets,now known as the Citadel,repelled the battle hardened Marine’s charges.
