I was trying out my Gpp yesterday and the Ace 250 found this bullet in a tot lot play ground.It was about a foot deep and was ringing up as a nickle.I think the sand may be from the Carolina beach area or something.Do you think it's the real deal.I'm in Raleigh N.C. so I'm thinking when they scooped the sand up on the beach it just road along for the trip.Found a lot of coins yesterday but this truly made the day real or not. Thanks guys ,HH

Ace 250 finds civil war bullet ?

Hahahaha.
I was going to say the same thing: LOOKS LIKE THE REAL DEAL TO ME TOO.
If it was a foot deep it may have been brought in when they brought in dirt to level the area
out and build the tot lot, or it might be exactly where it landed years ago or it could have been dropped by someone
recently. I wouldn't bet on the last possibility.
There must be hundreds of thousands of them laying around. Can't even imagine how many thousands of rounds
were fired during the Civil War.

Yes it looks like the real deal, looks like one that missed its target.
Nice find!
Coulda been trucked in with the sand, but you'll be surprized what you find in tot lots sometimes. I've never found a minnie ball in a tot lot, but I've found all kinds of bullets and rounds. Boys carry around all kinds of stuff to show off to their friends. It being lead (and heavy) I could see it sinkin' down a foot. Anythings possible. Either way, it's a nice find. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Hunting!
