Civil war bullets

[Tigerdude]

Spent the day gutting houses in south Louisiana due to flood(yes, president Obama, we have been flooded and it's bad). On way back home, stopped for about an hour. Found two bullets, typical Union Minnie ball and what I guess to be a revolver bullet. Does anyone know what kind? Thanks

If the smaller bullet is a 44 caliber then that is a common union revolver caliber. Is it fired or dropped?
