Hey all, pulled a 1845 large cent today, same place I got an 1817 about a month ago. Well, along with the penny I got a low hit on my Nox and pulled this thing out in two pieces... resembles a bullet but the fancy scrollwork is different. The tip is heavy like lead would be. It was flattened out, and about six inches down. IMG_2960.JPG IMG_2961.JPG IMG_2956.JPG IMG_2957.JPG

Congrats on the copper.
I'm wondering if the item is from writing instrument of some sort-case/cover?
