More Civil War recoveries

[treasurehound]

Went back and hunted a site I hunted earlier and found some more bullets, a nice eagle cuff button marked Scovill on the back with solid shank, horseshoe, what I think is a heel plate, more shotgun shells and other misc stuff.

the smallest bullet is a post 1900s bullet
(most likely post 1940s)

I figured that it was post war by the markings. Just included with the rest.

Congrats on the nice CW relics, did you find them in a field or the woods or maybe both, just curious ?

In the woods...DEEP in the woods. I actually got separated from my partner and ended up calling him on his cell. I asked for him to holler so I could get a bearing and I could barely hear him. Eventually I made back to him by us hollering every so often.

I just found a bullet like that, what kind of gun and what size?

Cool, good idea bringing your cell phones.

Great finds Thound!!! That is a great looking button. The fact you dug it in deep woods helped preserve it as opposed to finding it in a field that had been heavily fertilized. Any time you see checkering in the grooves of a bullet, it's post war. Check the area where you guys found the relics today VERY carefully. There should be more relics there. Good luck.

I think this is a "felled" tree marker.
"hubbard" thing".
