And you still spelled my name wrong! Lmao! Man, I'll have to look at that thing now that you got it cleaned up a little better! I guess I should get my stuff together and add the pics of what I found here too lol. I'm just glad my searching from yesterday didn't leave me empty handed :D

Is there any writing on the four-hole?

Love your carved bullet. The button with four holes . . . we always just called them shirt buttons. I found one last week and it DOES have a back mark . . .

I love the carved bullet, if only it could talk. I could only imagine what was going through this soldiers mind while he was making this.

I found a carved bullet similar to the one you have. I believe it is a fishing sinker. It is a really nice find.
