Location Recovered: Fort Blakeley, AL

Description:
This is a distinctive Confederate bullet called the NBF or Nathan Bedford Forrest Enfield because many have been found in camps occupied by his troopers. It is technically not an Enfield because it is undersized, probably for the .54 caliber Austrian rifles carried by Western Theater troops.

This one was dug in Fort Blakely, Alabama. General Forrest was up the road in Selma during this siege operation.
