Fortis Gold Watch, 2 IH and 4 Ringer bullet

lostlake88 · Nov 25, 2009

Found these today. I have been on an Indian head streak lately

. Eyeballed the Fortis watch on a fairly steep hillside, seems to have a gold band on it (very heavy and shiny) :dontknow:

. Further research tells me this would have been an expensive watch to buy, I am sure the owner was bummed to loose it. The bullet has 4 rings, never seen one of these before :dontknow:

Thanks for looking.

Don't know crap about the watch but I guess it's a good find. the bullet is a modern bullet. There are crimps in the grooves between the rings.

A buddy of mine (peanut from Tnet) found a 4 ringer the other day...i havent seen it but he had it identified as a rare confederate bullet value was in the $200-$300 range.

Nice watch, but I think the bullet is modern. Here is a pic of the bullet I found, that randyinarkansas is talking about.
