Buttons and bullets day

[DigginDownUnder]

I found a few more cool relics today, including my second 1870's NSW general service militia button, two pinfire bullets, and a 1949 Australian Threepence.




Thanks for looking.

Very Cool Finds ..
I would love to find a Complete Pinfire Round, or bullet for that matter.

Is the broken round on the right (in the last picture a Spencer Round?.

Also is the coin in the first pic, Silver?

Either way neat finds from where the water goes to opposite way down the Toilet. lol

Thanks Davers

I'm not sure exactly what the bullet is, I was thinking .577 Snider, could be a Spencer though.

It's a 50% silver coin, Threepence, after 1946 Australia went from 925 silver to half silver.

Cheers

Could someone give me an idea an the era of those pinfire bullets?

Circa 1860's sound about right?
