[size=large]Chris and I got into a patch of civil war bullets last night. Photo below is 7 bullets I got out of one hole[/size]

[size=large]I ended up with 16 bullets, a 1919 dog tag (the dog is probably dead by now) a button back, pocket knife and a whatsit. I was detecting and received a signal, looked down and saw a fresh plug Chris had just dug a bullet from. I reopened the hole and retrieved four more bullets he had missed. . . . He forgot to recheck his hole, thanks Chris. Chris ended up with 10 bullets, 4 shy of what he should have had, hehe.
Below is an old coin Chris found. It's about the size of a large cent. It has a harp with a lady on one side, the other side has a man's head and some roman numerals. Anybody have an idea of what it might be? Thanks for looking, Vernon[/size]
