I was out in the yard this afternoon with my eight year old (who is now totally hooked) and was about to call it a night when I got a "so so" signal on my XLT. I decided to go ahead and dig it and out popped this chewed pistol bullet. I was in the process of looking at what I had found when my son yells over to me that he found something. I put my bullet in my pocket and walked over to him, and out of hole he dug the size of a small car he pulled this rivet out. Sorry about the pics I can't seem to locate my camara and had to use my phone. Maybe my next search of the yard will yield a kodak.
