Got out today to use my new AT Pro for the first time. Nothing special, found my first button, but I cannot read any of the writing on it and it's not perfectly round, pretty beat up. So here ya go, among today's finds, a fishing net, a dog leash and a button. Oh and whatever this little round thing is, at first I thought it was a dime, no idea what it really is.

**EDITED** My "button" turned out to be a head-stamp of a bullet. Still pretty excited about this, as it's a first for me.

1st pic appears to be a shotgun head of the shell. I can see the primer and a single ring around it. Some in better condition can be quite collectible.. Here is a good site for the older headstamps you can use to ID.

Looks like you've got a fired lead bullet too


I'm not a bullet guy so I couldn't tell you what kind. I'm still learning my relics😊
