Featured in this lot is this Tombstone, Arizona Territory shotgun primer and bullet mould circa 19th century and displayed in the Tombstone Western Heritage Museum; Provenance: From the Tombstone Western Heritage Museum in Tombstone, Arizona. There is a shotgun primer and a bullet mold in this collection both dating well into the mid 19th century due to a lack of identifying marks. The shotgun primer is for a 12 gauge. The bullet mold appears to be for both a bullet mold and a cap and ball round for molding the ammunition the appointed rifle would be firing. Both are primitive and lack markings but were housed at the Tombstone Western Heritage Museum. The condition of this pair of reloading tools is preserved with heavy oxidation adorning the smaller of the two and some patina and slight discoloration adorning the shotgun shell priming tool. The measurements of this pair of reloading tools is 4 5/8" x 1 1/4" x 1" and 4 7/8" x 1 1/8" x 7/8". The collective weight of these two reloading tools is 8oz. G231, G236
