detecting in the park possible CW bullet

[greengorilla]

Went to a couple of local parks yesterday evening with my friend Guerillabill. We found the stuff in the photo plus a lot more we contributed to the recycle bin. The thing that looks like a button is a base from a Western shotgun shell (12 ga) The bullet is about 50 cal. probably civil war era. Not bad for a hot Arkansas afternoon.
