Congrats! It's always more exciting to see the person who finds one,or his first one than people who find handfuls.

It's always great digging a CW bullet, especially your first. Now the addiction begins.

Congrats on your first! I remember my first as well! It was a sharps and it was shaved in half, then a few minutes later I found another sharps in perfect condition. It's fun finding something for the first time!

I remember the feeling finding my first and thinking, "Whoa, this stuff really IS still out here". I used to think as a kid, when I went to tourist shops that had real civil war bullets for sale that all the relics must have already been found. Thank God that is so far from the truth even today. Congratulations and I hope you find many more as I have after my first.
