Single cavity bullet mold featuring a brass block with a blued iron sprue cutter and handle yoke, mounted to a turned hardwood handle with a smooth varnished finish. The cavity appears suited for a .44 caliber conical bullet. A small stamped “W” is located on the brass block near its upper surface. The combination of brass and iron with a fitted wood handle suggests a later 19th-century commercial or sporting production rather than a martial example.
Dimensions approx.: 5.25 x 1.375 in.
