In order to properly ID, the experts will need precise diameter (using calipers or a micrometer) and possibly weight in grains (1 gram = 15.432 grains).

As cti4sw indicated, we need your bullet's super-precise diameter & weight measurements for certainty in identifying it. Also, a couple more photos would be helpful. Meanwhile... it SEEMS to be a US "New Model" .52 Sharps with moldcasting sprue on its base snipped off. See bullet #113 in the book "A Handbook Of Civil War Bullets & Cartridges."

Thanks guys! Unfortunately, I let the homeowner take it, so I don't have any measurements. I looked at the pic for 113 and looks like that's what it is. Thanks again!! HH!
