1770's fort musket balls

I was detecting a field near a 1770's fort foundation and found some great stuff today! 2 musket balls, a 1941 mercury dime, and a 1885 Horne & Ward mercantile token. The good part was I was there less than 2 hours and only covered a small part of the field. I found one musketball and the 41 merc with my V3i, then it started raining and I switched to my AT Pro and found the other musket ball and the token.

UPPER RIGHT HANDLE LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE A COLONIAL TAP HANDLE

Great finds! It's good you had the AT Pro to back you up in the rain.

It was found in the same area as the musket balls. I wonder if you are right(?)
