My Sons Second Find!

[parsonshunt]

Hi all, Thankyou for sharing your info and kindest words regarding my sons new hobby and his first find being the old enamel flat button from the 1800's.
We went out today for another hunt in the same spot and he found what we believe is an old lead bullet. After a little research on the net, it looks like it could also be from the 1800's. If anyone could help us with identifying this and it's era and weapon it was fired from would be appreciated. Thanks, Harrison and John.
