I am sure those of you in the USA with an interest in the American Civil War have a lot of artifacts yourselves. Bullets etc. are rather common I guess.
But for a Swede like me, living in Sweden, I am pretty proud to own my own little collection

.
Here is a picture of what I got:

Now I know it might look little, but I am still proud of it. I am also aware that some of it might be fake, but to be honest, I still feel it is real, and I am pretty sure that these are so common that there are no reason for it to be fake.
The relics aren't in any order here on the picture, but they come from several battle locations and/or camps according to the sellers. I have no proof of that but I still like to believe it's true and I have divided them into that. They were not bought as a whole, I have bought a small collection every now and then on Ebay when I could. Sometimes just a bullet or two, sometimes a collection of more items.
Anyway, just thought I 'd share it with you, might be cool to know that American History survives in Sweden also
