Bullet ID?

Without having a book handy, I will take a guess of a .69 two ringer rifled musketoon, they are one of my favorite bullets. Some of the 1842 smooth bore muskets were rifled for better accuracy and took that bullet instead of a round ball. There were not many of them around because the 1855 Springfield and 1853 Enfield with the .58 minie ball became very popular.
 
I concur with .69 Prussian. Looks like the examples on p. 44 of the McKee & Mason book.
 
I hate it when I'm wrong.........:biggrin: Sure looks like a Prussian now that I looked it up. Nice find........:thumbup:
 
Good find on the PRUSSIAN. :thumbup: cch
