All found within arms reach of each other

More lead today the one with the dimple. Is the piece I found today. Found it by just probing holes with a pinpointed. Right above the dimple there is some lines or small grooves you can kinda see from the picture. Don’t know if that’s a tooling mark
Maybe from being hit with something. Everything else is stuff I have found within arms reach the button I have been told is from somewhere between 1810-20’s

The lines are rifleing marks: After the bullet is fired rifleing causes thee fullet to spin which inproves accuracy.

Those lines are not rifling marks, they go the wrong way. They look like rodent teeth marks. It is pretty common to find lead items that have been gnawed on by rodents or even chewed by pigs.
