Second half-dime from this site in 2014.
Straight shank Eagle cuff, but the face is in really rough shape.
Melted lead is usually not very exciting, but I loved this piece. Wonder if they were making it, and it messed up, or did he just toss a good one in the fire?
Pulled .36 cal pistol bullet . . .
And this is weird, I think. This is lead, wrapped around some iron. Only thing I can think of, is that a bullet HIT something iron and it stayed together all these years . . .
The balance is a cap, 6 dropped 3-ringers, a .44 round ball, and a round ball measuring .52 cal. What the heck? Oh and some melted lead and 3 thin brass somethings, with tiny pins. Maybe pocket knife parts?
