AWESOME CIVIL WAR ERA GETTYSBURG RELIC FOUND HANOVER, PA-BULLET IN COURT GAVEL-MEAUSRES 8 1/2\" BY 2 7/8\"- THE RELIC WAS A PIECE OF WOOD WITH A BULLET IN IT FROM THE GETTYSBURG BATTLEFIELD TAKEN AFTER THE BATTLE AND TURNED INTO A COURT GAVEL AS A KEEP SAKE OF THE BATTLE. THE GAVEL IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION- SOME WEAR AND TEAR ON THE ENDS- ACQUIRED FROM HANOVER, PENN- A FEW MILES FROM THE BATTLEFIELD. HANOVER AND A CONFEDERATE COLUMN TRYING TO REACH IT\'S SHOE FACTORIES WAS ONE OF THE REASONS THE ARMIES RUN INTO EACH OTHER AT GETTYSBURG. GREAT COLLECTIBLE AND VERY INTERESTING ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION.
