First post and one afternoon's finds

Hi everyone... I've been reading TN for a while and enjoy the great pictures and stories as well as the friendly atmosphere. So I thought I'd start posting here with my own (usually amazingly humble) finds.
I was able to get out today thanks to this nice warm September. I went to two small spots--a patch of woods next to a local little league field and then a stretch of riverbank. In the river rocks I found a fired musket ball, a weird trinket, and a buffalo nickel... so that was a great afternoon by my standards . I also got a small pile of sinkers, about 37 cents clad, and other odds and ends.
Here's a picture of the musket ball and the trinket, which seems to be made of copper or something similar. Any guesses as to what it is?
Thanks for looking!

Your "trinket" does look like a 1980ish earing my wife used to wear.
That's weird.

Welcome to the posting side of Tnet.

At least in terms of fashion, it's probably a good thing the 80s are over .
