Pieces of 12 lb cannon ball w/ case shot. Felling axe head, iron ring make up the top row.
Then there are 2 flattened musket balls and a minie used as a nipple protector (notice the tip of the minie, 3 pieces of chewed on lead. In the middle row there are a collection of Confederate musket balls and Yankee three ring minie balls and 1 .53 caliber Sharps
The last row starting at left: 3 pieces of harmonica reeds, a piece of camp lead used for making bullets, next at top, is a buckle of the leather strap of a kepi (the main type of hat worn by the CW soldier). Under it is another buckle stamped with "1854". To the left of those is a colonial 1700s flat button and a button dug from a Confederate redoubt that still has gold glit and is labeled "Plated" on the back with a wreath (above is a leather rivet). Finally is a lip to some type of bag and what looks like some type of leather or cloth grommet?? (Savage bullet above)
Thanks for taking a look and hope you liked

) Seriously, it's good to see American history being saved by those who love it.
That would be nice. That is my goal.
