I found something else pretty cool. It’s what I believe to be a musket ball. It’s very heavy. I know nothing about them, so if anyone has knowledge of how to confirm it, I’d appreciate it. I know I could get a measuring caliper, but for now, I weighed it. Here is what it came back as:

Thanks for looking.

Haha it didn’t matter what we passed, it had to be cut in half. That includes rocks, deer jaw bone, a blue claw crab, and a dead catfish.
