Now I have gotten 3 ringer lead bullets with white patina but they all had a flat bottom. Well this one is like the one I see you guys getting. I had the hollow bottom and it looks dropped!! I’m so happy. Now I’m not saying it’s Civil War but it’s the closest one I may ever get. I got Buffalo and you wheats and A TON of tabs. I’m telling you guys when I get over this door knocking from the three years of public park Boot Camp and what I learned it will be easy Pickens at my permissions. LOL IMG_1270.webpIMG_1271.webpIMG_1268.webpIMG_1269.webpIMG_0002.webp

I dig a lot of holesIMG_1267.webp

P.S. I fought the root and the root won IMG_1273.webp

Looks like you were busy congrats on your finds
 
That's a nice bullet. Looks to be CW to me but, I'm no expert. Shovel looks a bit "bent". Hope you can straighten her out. Nice score on the bullet & Buffalo. :icon_thumright:

The shovel is cracked. I have to get it wielded back. I have no idea where to get that done. That’s my fourth broken shovel in 3 years.

Is the Predator piranha you have there? I just lost my Predator "D95" and hope to post a "reward" for it's return in the local paper. I don't think many stout men could bent the handle on the Predator D95. That thing is a beast. Hope you can get her fixed.:icon_thumright:

Nice mini ball and beefalo I see you had to go trash digging to get em!
Just google Welders, truck and farm equipment repair and you will find someone near you to weld her up. Tell them to add a "gusset" to each side and it will be stronger than new. They will know what you are talking about
 
Nice finds. Congratulations! Sorry your shovel broke.
 
Bust day for you and nice finds. I could never dig that many targets unless I was in soft sand using my scoop.

Far as Welding local to you ask at the High school for their best student welder, the cost may be free, I know we used to weld up all kinds of thing for people, very few were ever charged anything. Or you can take it to a welding shop and pay 20$ and up. I'll Gladly do it free if you want to pay postage both ways. Best of luck to you.
 
Anyone know if this is a Civil War Minie Ball? IMG_1282.webpIMG_1284.webpIMG_1283.webp

Congrats on the nice digs Truth. :occasion14: Hopefully you keep all the pull tabs and aluminum you dig. You could scrap it and pay for the welding job. I think you need to add a cordless sawsall to your arsenal of detecting gear for those big roots.
