One of my coolest finds EVER! I love this.

Was just going through some metal detecting junk on my work bench and picked up a couple of different caliber bullets. One looked like a 45 cartridge. When I picked it up I heard a little noise inside. Normally I don't play with live ammo dug out of the ground. This just seemed different. I picked it up and tried twisting the bullet. It opened and low and behold, dice! I think this is such a cool find. If banner finds don't have to be extremely valuable this is one.

[against the wind]

Very cool.
Amazing what people will do to conceal illegal gambling?? I remember how dice were confiscated, if found on your person, or during a locker inspection, back in my navy days.
Fun find Don.

[CRUSADER]

It is very cool.

What date range are we talking?

 

[nolanation]

Pretty neat

 

[junkhunt]

I wonder if military people had to hide the dice because gambling was agents the rules in a militarily camp? Good hiding place.

 

[smokeythecat]

Center fire cartridge?

 

[junkhunt]

How old do you think is? WW 2 era?

With them being rim fire rounds I would guess well before WW2, Maybe civil war area.

 

[Diggin Dude]

Now that's something you don't find every day! It's a really cool find, interesting way to hide dice. HH

 

[Johncoho]
