4 Silvers and a Minie Ball

[Hunk-a-lead]

Poking about in a city owned vacant lot netted some goodies.

The homes near the area were built in the 1930s but are not too far from civil war battle sites. This good-sized lot made for a fun 3-hour hunt.

1 Three ring Minie ball (would love any help on ID)
1 Vintage Webelos neckerchief slide
1 Toy Motorcycle
1 War Nickel 1942
1 Roosevelt Dime 1950
2 Washinton Quarters 1943, 1945
1 Vintage Dog Tag 1931 (sorry about the picture quality)
1 Vintage Compact Lid (would appreciate any help on ID)
1 Set of Keys

Never ceases to entertain me, the assortment of things you can find in an area that is abandoned. I passed this spot dozens of times until I finally saw it freshly mowed. The rest is history (no pun intended). Thanks for peeking and HH.

Thinking the ball is a Williams cleaner, or most of one anyhow.

Nice hunt! No clad or wheaties?
Way to hit it when you can get the coil down on the ground.

Congratulations on a great hunt with a nice variety of finds including a nice old hunk a lead. I don’t have my civil war bullet book with me right now, but I don’t think your bullet is a Williams cleaner (sorry to disagree ncsuwolf ). Your neckerchief slide is a Cub Scout Webelos slide. The design has been used for many years and is still in use today.

Stay safe, good luck and keep swingin.

Nice job on the silvers. I like that Webelo's neckerchief slide as well.
