Back to the Cavalry Camp

[Fullstock]

Went back to the Cavalry camp today for a couple hours. Not a lot of stuff, bullets, knapsack dumb bell, grommets, percussion caps and something I never found before, a B&O Railroad lead bale seal. Found it right in the middle of the bullets and other relics. I read that the B&O Railroad started in 1833 and by 1861 it had a line in the area where I was hunting. Cool find, but not sure why it would be in their camp.

Pretty awesome day. What part of the country are you in? Found a few bullets in the last couple days myself.
