Silver, Gold, bullets, wheats and a "what is it"

Here's a few finds from the past couple of days minus the junk. I've been hitting a small park nearby that never seems to be occupied these days so it's very peaceful.

Wheat pennies and 1 Canadian. 1940, 1944D, 1947D, 1958D, *unknown, 1967 Canadian. The unknown one has some junk on the front of it that won't come off. It's also bent so I'm not really motivated to clean it.

1948 Quarter, 1944P Nickel - The 1939 merc is only the second one I've found so far and I found it with my new AT Pro that arrived yesterday. I started out finding a lot of bottle caps but when I figured out the Iron Audio in Pro mode I started finding coins. I like it.

I've pulled 3 rings out of that park so far including a 14K Kaynar white gold wedding band which is my first gold this year so that was cool find! I also found a SWAROVSKI ladybug that's in excellent condition. It really glimmers in the light.

I found a few bullets and bullet casings as well. The one has a question mark above it because I'm not totally sure what it is. It may not even belong in the lineup. It's hollow and very light.. Also, I'm wondering about the copper bullet. Does anyone have any idea on the age?

I also found my first Cub Scout related item, a little bobcat pin.

I have no clue what the last item is, none whatsoever. I do know that it was mounted to something by a screw in the center though. That's what it looks like anyway. Any suggestions?

I'm really looking forward learning my new machine! I've only used it for a few hours today so I'm pumped to get back out.

Thanks for looking at my stuff. - WIT

The questionable bullet looks like a .32 rim-fire, if it does not have a center cap. I used to have a .32 rollingblock when I was a kid.

I believe that the bullet itself is copper. Would that make sense? I don't really know anything about ammunition. Thanks

the ? marked item appears to be a insert for a aluminum arrow should have threads in it to screw the field point or broadhead onto the arrow

I just checked it out and I see no threads. It's smooth.

Your "what is it" looks to me like either a fancy drain cover or a vent cover.

Probably wrong but worth a shot. :tongue3:

The object in last picture, (with the ? above it,) appears to be a masonry anchor.
They were usually made of lead or aluminum. Drill a hole in the masonry
the size of the anchor, slip the anchor in the hole, then you can screw
into the anchor to hold things in place. (I said "were", since now-a-days, most of
them are made of plastic.)

I ain't no expert, but that was my first thought, also.
