I found this diamond shaped brass plate in an area with several CW relics. It has the green patina and the age looks period. Does anyone know what this may have attached to?
The musket ball was also found today. It appears to be larger than a .69 caliber and I put a .69 minie ball next to it and a quarter for size. Were there any guns that shot a musket ball that was bigger than a .69 caliber? The ball is lead so I would have to assume that it is not grape or canister shot as I have found them before and they were iron.
Thanks for any help and HH!!!
