Lucky on this one, a dozer scraped just above paydirt. Highlights are an Enfield trigger in its brass mount, and a big ole 69cal bullet. Most interesting is the lead mold which appears to have been a button cast, I see a glimpse of letters in the borders as well as a center image, I'll work on detailing later this evening to see if that helps.
Thanks for looking

Congratulations! You found a nice bunch of them. Thanks for posting.
 
No it's a lead melt mold of a Scoville marked button back (2nd pic). Wish I could find the front, still a chance, they're still moving earth around.
