Got out for a few hours today. Went to a park in another town which I have frequented before.

For the coins I dug a 1946 rosie and 2 wheats.

As far as the military items goes, the brass disc has crossed rifles and a screw post on the back. It's either a hat or lapel pin.

The next item I am quite sure that its a 3 ringer. I have only dug one other up here in the Northeast. If I am wrong please chime in.

Thanks for reading and HH

Wow Al! :clapping:

I think perhaps may be Confederate minie ball as it looks larger/wider than the Union I find here. I was watching 'Diggers' :smitten: (btw I love 'em & thank goodness another show came out besides 'American Diggers' ) lol

but anyway they unearthed 2 minie balls and compared them, confederate was much larger and shaped like yours...

I can't imagine the hole that bullet would put in a human body. Nice hunt!
