Caliber .30 MI in clips and bandoleers
ammunitions lot number

Sincerely,

I’m not from the Historical Society but it sounds like a box from cartridges from the civil war (war between the states) era. This is a link to the Frankford Arsenal wikipedia page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankford_Arsenal
