That really does look a lot like a cannon muzzle.... i would hate to have been next to that thing when it broke! Nice finds!
 

Nice Finds!! The bracket with the two holes in it to the right of the 45-70 cartridge is from a U.S. Cavalry saddle as shown on page 60 of Stanley Phillip's book "Excavated Artifacts from Battlefields and Campsites of the Civil War 1861-1865" Supplement 1. Nice buttons. HH, Quindy.
 

Nice bunch of buttons.

Awesome cannon muzzle!!! Every reference I can find says CW 6 pounder .Great finds...wow!
 

What is the wall thickness of the cannon section at it's thinnest? Has the right profile, but the wall thickness seems too thin for a cannon barrel.
 

Awesome finds it doesnt get much better than that for C.W finds !
 

congralations i am not an expert or ant where close to it.But if i had to say it was something that is what i think it is.This is the only one that i know of..Must feel great.
 

Sweet buttons and relics...keep pounding that site!
 

Nice buttons........Keep on digging!!! WTG

Nice ID on the Saddle bracket, found close to Cav. button. Any ideas who wore that huge Cav. Button, (OFFICER)? it's bigger than a coat button? Thanks
 

Great buttons, congrats on an awesome hunt!
 

Awesome finds Congratulations!!
