Does anyone have one of these with good markings on it? If so can you post a picture?

I have 1 in my collection with the ''patent 1848'' stamped onto it. It measures 1.006h and .551w. It has a cork base with a hole in the center. This is the first time I am attaching a photo via Photobucket. I hope it works.  If it does not come up any suggestions would be helpful.

If you upload a picture to PhotoBucket, go to it in your album and click the rectangular box labelled IMG.  The box will say "copied" and then paste whatever code you copied directly here with the pull down menu or ctrl-V. 

Your picture is not visible to me so if all else fails, send it to me at CWBUllet@hotmail.com and I'll post it for you.

Thanks.

Here we go...this is a nicely marked example of an uncommon bullet.  I think the issue was that the file was compressed when uploaded.  I de-compressed it to this:
