Musket Balls & Tinkle Cones

[WawaDuane]

A beautiful morning to go out to my Jesuit ring spot....no rings but lots of interesting goodies.







The old squished penny on the railroad thing.
























More tinkle cones.



What is that weird thing on the left?



How did a bike tire thingy end up way in the bush?









Copper nuggets and I guess a copper arrowhead.




Some Indian pottery shards.

Very nice variety of finds, the copper point is nice.

Looks like a pinfire cartridge to me.

I agree on the pinfire cartridge, I've found pinfire shot gun shells before but never a cartridge, nice one. Liking all the tinker cones and the arrowhead is really cool , I wouldn't be surprised that you'll get the coil over a piece of trade silver soon.

I have to admit ~ I had to look up " tinkle cones ". Very glad you posted these because I would have never guessed what they were if I had ever found one. Old lead is always a good find for me.
