[QUOTE="Crow Terminator, post: 178317, member: 220"] Well I ain't got much but what I got I am proud of having. This is some of my better stuff. I do tend to give away a lot of my bullets and such along the way. Landowners and curious passerby folks are always appreciative of a bullet or two...whether shot or dropped. Case 1 = Misc bullets from the Civil War. They are my dropped and carved bullets. Some are yankee bullets (most of the 3 ring .58 caliber ones are dubbed yankee bullets). The ones at the bottom are my true Confederate bullets...Enfields. Then there are some carved bullets in there as well. They liked cutting the bottom part of the bullets off. I guess to a bored soldier, those grooves made a nice place to put a knife blade. Not shown are hundreds of shot bullets I keep in coffee cans. [img]http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b241/danieltn/bullets.jpg[/img] Case 2 = Misc camp litter. You got pocket knives, rosette, bayonet scabbard, harmonica reeds, and a few period rings. There are also two half dimes in there...1851 and 1858. [img]http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b241/danieltn/case1.jpg[/img] Case 3 = "Common" yankee eagle buttons. Cuff, coat, and vest sizes. Some are general service (plain shield) some are Infantry (I in shield). Most all of mine from around here are the green color and most of what I find these days are either falling apart, smashed flat, or just the backs.
