Sword hanger and Gardiner explosive bullet

Digger70pa

Well-known member
I found these last weekend. The Gardiner explosive bullet is very rare. A regiment in 3rd corps Army of the Potomac had them. The Federal government only bought 110,000 of two calibers during the whole war.

Very interesting.
 
Interesting digs, is that your first Explosive Gardner? GPX I assume?
No buddy Its not my first Gardiner explosive. Its the first at this spot. Ive recovered quit a few relics in this area. Yes I was using a pulse machine. The sword hanger came from a cavalry action I have permission to search.
