Found a saddle buckle and two civil war mini ball bullets today. One carved and one shot. Thought it was camp lead until I cleaned it and saw the rings. Also some modern bullets,keys,square head nails and clad. Thanks for looking.
Also in photo with two bullets I found this small one in a plowed field. Pictured next to a three ringer for scale.

the one in the top right may be CW too... I have dug those before, and I don't think they're modern.

Cheers,

Wish some knew what they were the ones I dig are round and long like that with rings. Seems smaller that a 36 cal. Thought they were modern and went into the lead bucket.
Nice finds sir.
