    bullet ID

    I found this at an old farm in central Va about 2 yrs ago, I never got an ID on it if I remember correctly so I thought I would post it again. Thanks.

    Re: bullet ID

    If it's a bullet it is so deformed I doubt anyone could even guess it. Need some measurements (diameter at base), weight in grains (conversion charts are many online) and history of general area where it was found (ie: near a CW battlefield, etc). Is it magnetic or nonmagnetic? Monty

    It may be my eyes but that looks like it has been carved on.

    I also noticed something that looked like carving, but couldn't tell for sure. Monty
