1903 IH, and an all brass 410 ga. shotgun hull. and some relics.

[Old River]

Dug a nice indian head penny today, and found what a thought was a pistol shell until I got it cleaned. It was a 410 ga. all brass hull. The first of the kind I've ever found. The other is 10 ga. all brass. Included are a few other relics, along with a couple of fishing sinkers.

Never heard of an all brass shotgun shell. Those rings are associated with animal harnesses (if that is the same thing that I have found) I have found a bunch too.

From time to time the ammo producers turn out all brass shells, but never seen a .410 all brass. Most of the ones I have seen are 12 guage and I know some were made for the military. You can still buy all brass hulls to load your own if you have the equipment. Nice digs. I lightened it up a bit so I could see it better, hope you don't mind. Monty

Herter's used to make all brass hulls for reloaders. Back when I was reloading my 12ga. shells, I used to buy my wads from them.......NGE (T)

Oh yeah, I forgot about Herter's. They use to have a lot of unusual stuff. Monty

As for the shotgun shells, I have found lots of 12,16, & 10 ga. I'll try to post them soon. This 410 was dug in the same area where the others came from. All My old relics came from the same area. Thanks for viewing, and the comments.
