Went out today in a couple of yards. It was a beautiful fall day here in TN. The AT pro was all that. Gave me some good deep signals. Been diggin lots of buttons and bullets lately, about time for a plate!!!! We'll see what sat/sun can bring.

I wish..when I dug it thought it was a sharps..then cleaned it. It's not. Some carbine type bullet but don't know what. I've dug one more like it in the area.

Looks like it might be a Maynard carbine bullet. Nice condition!

You could very well dig a triangle base there.

The bullet above the eagle with the wide groove looks like a .50 cal. Smith Carbine bullet. They are scattered all over middle Tennessee even in some early CSA camps. Nice finds. HH, Quindy.

Old dude,
I use McKee and mason..civil war projectiles II..some say its now outdated and there is another reference book that's better more up to date. However, do not know the name of it.
