I keep finding 50 cal bullets. Are these things everywhere?

[onemanwolfpack]

Went to St Augustine last week for a camping vacation and had time to do some metal detecting, I didn't find a whole lot but I did find my third 50 cal bullet in the last three months. So far I have found one at a farmers market, one under a park bench over looking a nearby river, and now this one on the beach. Does anyone else find this size bullet in odd places or am I just having a strange run on these things? I can only assume people are carrying them around and they are falling out of their pockets but I'm not sure.

Looks like Obsidian, prized by native Americans for the production of arrow and dart points..

Hello...
I recently went to Fort Myers beach and found these bullets. I don't know what cal. they are but wanted to reply to your post. Can you tell me what cal. they are by the picture? From what I gather, they are from WWII? Just before I went to Fort Myers, they had dredged the beach and pumped sand from the ocean about a mile out to replace it. I was told they replaced the sand a foot deep. I found the majority of these about 4" down. Other hunters on the beach were finding them too.
Also while walking the beach I had found some type of rock that had washed up. I'm wondering if anyone could tell me what it is by the picture. It looks almost like black onyx.
Thanks and happy hunting !!
