Civil war finds from today

[TNHunter]

Went back out today in East TN to try my new SEF 10x12 coil for my M6. I started out by finding parts of 2 Spencer Cartridges. Later I found Confederate Block I cuff button in same area that I had previously found Block I coat button. My next find was Eagle cuff button. I later found my first William's cleaner. I found this rivet with leather still attached to it near the Williams cleaner. Do you all think it is period? I sure hope so! Also found some lead cast off not sure if there are teeth marks in it. Thanks for looking.

I find a lot of that where I hunt back east. There it was poured to make fishing weights and line weights. Your s is more likely bullet making. One side is a cast of the ground it fell on - the piece on the left shows that.

Nice finds. That leather must have been well treated for so much to survive, wonder what it was? I have only found bits surrounding a rivet.

Sweet finds right there! Congrats! All period. That cuff I is a tough button to find. Man, I have to admit I enjoyed looking at it all. From the button to the leather, great finds!
