History of the Artifact

Now available to you are original Crimean war lead bullets used during the conflict. 

The Crimean War was the first conflict in which these kinds of bullets, hollow based with spiral grooves, came to prominence effectively substituting the old fashioned musket balls. This modern bullet model is also known as the ‘Minié Ball’ - named after its French inventor Claude Minié. Given its innovative features, the Minié ball, unlike its simple musket ball counterpart, allowed for greater effective range and accuracy. 

These bullets were first used in large scale during the Crimean War (1853 and 1856), a conflict which saw the Russians fighting against an alliance of France, the United Kingdom, the Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia. The Minie ball played an important role in this conflict as it offered French and British soldiers a range and accuracy advantage which decimated the ill-equipped Russians lines. 

The same bullets that decimated Russian troops at the battles of Balaklava and Sevastopol are now made available to you neatly protected inside our elegant glass top leather cases ready to be displayed in your collections!

I ordered this coin for my grandson, he loves anything Roman history and was thrilled. I didn’t receive the authentic certificate with it, I contacted the seller and asked if he could send one out to him. He responded right away and is sending it right out. I would recommend to everyone. Very good customer service and arrived early.
