Anyone ID this bullet?

It's smaller than a .69 larger than a .54. Has a small hole in the seat of it.

Looks like a burnside carbine. Nice find.

Is the burnside not a .54 cal? This is more like a .57. It's bigger than the .54.

I believe the diameter of a burnside can actually read up to .56. Not sure though does it have 3 rings or 2 kind of hard to tell? The length and weight would also help. I saw one similar that was of unknown origin. I would say its deffinately civil war, although I could be wrong.

It's definitely CW I found 8 more bullets a button and a finial. I held the base of it against the base of a 3 ringer and it was bigger in diameter. Looks like two rings and then a small portion around the very bottom of the base.
