A classic iron bullet mold dating to the mid-19th century, featuring dual cavities for both round ball and conical bullets with an integral sprue cutter. Likely intended for use with a .36 caliber percussion revolver of the period, this example reflects typical American manufacture of the 1840s–1860s and bears a faint “S.T.B.” marking, likely an owner or assembly stamp. Dimensions approx.: 4.875 x 1 in. Provenance: The Al and Carol Cali Collection. Pickup & Shipping: This lot may be picked up free of charge in Gardnerville, NV. It can also be delivered to the Annex Auctions facility for pick up in Sacramento for $25 pre invoice. Shipping via FedEx within the continental U.S. for $50 + 1.5% insurance (unless waived in writing). Combined lot shipping available.

Condition

Very good overall, with dark aged patina, minor oxidation, and light wear consistent with age; hinge operates properly and cavities remain clean and defined.
