civil war button, 2 bullets, dart

[Capone]

Wasn't expecting to find this button in Minnesota! Though we did send soldiers and had a couple camps.




The shorter bullet is heavy. Any idea what kind that is? Is there a good site that would explain the button? I know it's "artillery" civil war.

Also maybe 20 clad coins. No silver. Having a hard time finding silver.

Thanks for checking out my day!

Nice artillery cuff button, good CW era find. Probably came off a veterans uniform brought back from the war. Your bullet is almost certainly a cast centerfire round, could be rifle or pistol, hard to say without measurements.

I agree 38-45 caliber 'fired' .
Check out Civil War button back-Marks it should confirm your buttons mfg, era.

It's a Nice one , IMO better than modern Silver.

imo Your "dart" my be something else as well.

Cool finds + Clad to save or spend.
