100 year old bullet found in conservation park

[Renaebri]

Decided to explore a new area today. Arrow heads were found and a village was somewhere around here. It was different than I thought itd be from the map, the trails were really nice and there were barely any signals. There was one part just off the trail that was disturbed and sandy where I found this bullet. U.M.C CO New Club Star Primer, (Union Metallic Company) produced between 1867-1911 before it was purchased and changed to Remington.


My dad found a copper spoon in one of the campsites which has a nice design but no makers mark, it also has a layer of dark almost like it was painted?


Other than that, we found modern change, iron and some rifle bullets with no identifiable marks.

(Iron thing)

Nice finds!

 

[Renaebri]

thank you! If anyone can identify the spoon or the name of that pattern, I could use the help

It has a pretty big bowl but its bent so it was hard to take a picture of the whole thing.

Shell/Headstamp is what I meant, cant change the title :/

I can help with info on the Cartridge Headstamp.
What you have there is a Black Powder (Paper) Shot Shell for a 12Ga Shotgun.
Yours is one from the older Period (Late 1800's) before Rem-UMC merged.

Thanks buck8point for the info and that link, it helped me identify a different headstamp found today (Winchester Nublack 12 gauge)
