Good Day in Goldsboro NC (Nice cleaning bullet and first SILVER)

[cwdigger]

Well our day started off at 9:00 a.m. with "Justoneman82" he took us to his uncles house in goldsboro where confederate and union troops had marched. Within 15 minutes of being there I dug the Nice Cleaning bullet, first cleaning bullet that I have ever dug about 6". As the day went on we found other odd and end things, nails,door knobs,screws,bolts etc....... THEN "Dragon6Banger" Dug his first 1953 Wheaty and his 1st 1947-D Silver Rossie, Big Congrats to him . Thats him on the right in the pic, lol. Special thanks to Roger "Justoneman82" if it were not for him we would not have found anything. So all in all we had a fairly decent day. Thanks for looking and Happy Hunting.

Nice story!

I've found several of those odd, one ring bullets. So, that is what they are called, cleaning bullets?

Thankyou; keep on digging!
