NEW BERN FINDS

[wobax]

I met up with CW digger today and we hit a field on the outskirts of New Bern. This is what I ended up with. The large coin has some chinese or japanese characters on it. The two large .69 cal are possible Nessler for rifle musket MM#66 rounds (CSA!!!), I need help on iding the small possible pistol round.

Great CW finds,I would say that the other bullet is a M&M 488 or a M&M 489 Colt Dragoon.
Congrats.I like the shot gun slug.They possibly could also be a M&M 64
Awesome

Try tilting the coin to catch the light and/or leave a shadow, and repost some of the new pics. If I get a half-way good image of the
coin I should be able to help you with the i.d.
good finds. And, a not-holed coin. If it is one of the earlier non-holed coins, it would date it into the late 18, early 1900's.

Try putting some milk on the front of the coin.That makes some of the design stand out to the eye,and just
maybe you can get a idea what it is.You can always soak it in olive oil for a day or two,sometimes that bring
out some detail so you can ID the coin.
