Hey Everyone !

Brand new to the website and I’m totally stoked to be here! I’ve been metal detecting for only about 2 years now while being stationed out here in Guam. Just today I went to a favorite spot of mine at an old Spanish Fort called Fort Nuestra Senora de la Soledad, and I think I found an old musket ball?
It’s probably not a musket ball but all of the research I’ve done about the place and what they’re suppose to look like seem a little close ! It was right next to a bunch of really old trees about 06 inches under the ground. Could anyone tell me what I found ???

Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Be cautious when detecting near the beaches as your island might tip over.:tongue3: Gary
 

Welcome to Tnet! Your find does resemble a fired musket ball, it should be heavy and not be attracted to a magnet. Guam would be an awesome place to metal detect. I hope you dig more goodies there.
