TWO CIVIL WAR BULLETS. ONE LOOKS TO BE A GARDNER BULLET CVA....TWO FLAT BUTTONS AND A REALLY ODD LOOKING ORNATE OBJECT? APPEARS TO BE IRON MAYBE

The heck with the other item...the bullet next to the gardner is a nice CS shot gun slug/minie. They are found less than some CS buttons.

Nice find.

nice finds,,, the curely hook thing looks like a hand forged " spike hook " for the lack of the proper name.
the long tapered point would have been straight and they would hammer it into the wall or tree depending on where they were at , and then hang items on them.
i have seen these in antique cabins and old rock houses .
from the picture that is what it looks like to me .

No worries, thats what this site is for, congrats again on a very nice find! I would take that over all the more common CS state buttons any day (NC, SC, VA)
