Civil War Bullet Embedded in Wood \u2013 Recovered from Fredericksburg<\/p>\n

This remarkable relic from the Battle of Fredericksburg features a Civil War-era bullet lodged in a fragment of wood, preserving the moment of impact from over 160 years ago. Likely fired from a .58 caliber rifled musket, the lead projectile struck and became embedded in the wood during the intense fighting that took place in Fredericksburg, Virginia, in December 1862.<\/p>\n

Such battlefield artifacts offer a dramatic glimpse into the violence of Civil War combat, where thousands of rounds were exchanged amidst forests, fences, and fieldworks. This piece serves as a silent witness to one of the war\u2019s most lopsided Union defeats, where terrain and entrenched Confederate positions turned the battlefield into a slaughterhouse.<\/p>\n

A rare and evocative survivor, this bullet-in-wood artifact is a tangible connection to the brutal realities of 19th-century warfare.<\/p>\n

Label reads: \u201cBullet in Wood from Fredericksburg.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wood measures approximately 1\u201d x 1 \u00be\u201d.<\/p>\n

Comes housed in 6 x 8 riker display case with blue velvet and descriptive card.<\/p>\n
