Hi guys, a friend sent me these pics… allegedly found on a civil war battlefield.
Any ideas?
The base looks a bit like a Morse?


Thanks for your input.

I agree it is a Morse. You can see the “Y” shaped musket cap support which would have been soldered to the inside case walls in your 1st photo and the base washer & top of the cap in your last.
