Trying to find out if these are from the old west,Civil war, etc ? We found them on our farm but not sure how they got there. Thanks for any help you can provide.
They are projectiles commonly used in black powder weapons. They are old, judging by the white patina. There are people on hear that can probably id them for you. Without at least a general location it would a bit hard to say they were from the civil war. That is what I would say they are from. I hope this is at least helpful. Did you find them with a metal detector? Welcome to TNet. Nice finds. Happy Hunting
Thanks for the info. These are from Todd county KY. We found a few originally and then used the metal detector to find the rest. There was a total of 655 pieces in a small area. Any thoughts on why so many in one area?
