Had a chance to hunt in parent's farmyard again today-the same place where I found my first Mercury last week and have found numerous relics in the last couple of months
Was in the backyard when I got a decent mixed signal, dug three inches and saw what I thought was a piece of copper tubing. When I pried it out, I was very surprised to see a .50 cal bullet ! I imagine some kid got it at a military surplus shop. Here it is, next to some blackpowder bullets I've found in the same yard. Some of them are fired, and some are fired and impacted. A couple still have grease on them. The musketball was dropped.
Here are some more relics I've found in the last 3 weeks-2 silver plated spoons, a third pocket watch, a third sliver plated buckle, a third sling buckle, a second sales tax token, a second Marine Corps button, a glass mason jar top, and some type of brass spool
Finally, I noticed a tree frog hiding in my mother's potted palm. He's probably thinking, "The master of camouflage has tricked you, stupid human!"
