94th Artillery insignia, my first good find with the Equinox 900. Ever seen one like it?

This "ferrous sphere" was dug up by a homeowner here in East Tennessee, who lives within rock-throwing distance of a small Union Civil War fort. I've spent a day in her yard and have not found anything conclusively of Civil War vintage, but it should be there under the layer of big nails...

I need help authenticating what appears to be two cannon balls I found while gardening in Westchester County NY. Below is a description of what I found: Ball #1: 31 pounds 6.13 inches diameter 19.63 inches circumference Ball #2: 61.8 pounds 7.88 inches diameter 24.5 inches circumference They...

Any idea what this is? Brass found on a WW1 artillery range. The part of the range solders fired from. Not down range. It?s exactly 3? in length.

It is about 4 inches diameter (done with a tape measure so not exact). It weighs 9.02 pounds. I did...

I found this on the beach (Emerald Isle, North Carolina) while walking during low tide earlier this week. It appears to be an artillery round from, well, I'm hoping it was from WWII! It appears to be brass, and on the bottom is written 40 mm MK2 Lot 0484 and some other markings I cannot read...

This was an incredible hunt with some incredible people. Met up with my buddy Chris (aka birddogg on Youtube) and my buddy Exploring Alabama. Chris had a spot he wanted to comb through with a group so he invited us to come dig. There weren't a great number of relics found but the relics that...

I acquired this beauty at a second hand store, neat story read on..... I'm a treasure Hunter like to the thrift store environment and upon discovering a new treasure trove I hurried through the door. Immediately the shop owners mother and I struck up friendly conversation as I shopped around...

Found this on my latest excursion. It was about 4 inches, maybe 5 inches deep at the base of a ravine not far from Ball's Bluff. At first I thought it could be old pipe but there aren't any pipes in that area (heavily wooded area). Can anyone help me positively ID it as CW cannon or artillery...
