Looks like its quite on the site. Got to get in a little hunt early this morning and found a couple of sharps, musket ball, fired pistol, an eagle button, and a neat carved bullet. Always like to find one that has a personal touch.Makes you wonder what was trying to be carved. Looks like a final to me.

Tim,

Looks like a square-shank cone-cavity experimental Williams Cleaner to me. These are very desirable for collectors. I bet Danny or Mike may be PM'ing you about this rarity !

Hey Tim,

Nice finds. That carved bullet is really cool. Any guess as to what type of bullet he started with ?
