These are fired three ring bullets dug from the Daniel S. Farm near Gettysburg.
My people lived in Gettysburg before the war, and it has always had a real attraction for me.
I still have some nice smaller Civil War relics, like these, and a couple Southern hard images, and
a few Union soldier's images, which are much less expensive! I used to have many more years ago.
What happened? I will tell you.
Not many months after the 21st century began, I collapsed at home right after getting back from work.
I had suffered a sudden AVM, something like an aneurysm, and I was close
to death. I was in something like a coma for some weeks, and wife got me help at a hospital, but for awhile
I was beyond caring. Wife was told that I would soon die, or be brain dead. When I got home I still
believed that I would soon die, and so I began to sell off my best Civil War images, and relics. That Fall
I got to talk to my specialist who told me that I did better than expected, and I might live for years to come.
I continued to get even better, and so I began to collect relics, and images again. This time I have more
knowledge than I did when I was young, and generally I have made better purchases.
Thanks to God for my recovery, and that I am still collecting Civil War items which are so very interesting!
Oh, I want to show these. Excavated near the Daniel S. farm near Gettysburg.
