Hello Again My Long Lost Forum Friends! I finally went digging today even though it's still warm (upper 80's). Ken finally got the bugs out of my old machine earlier this year and I returned to one of the heavily hunted spots. I know for a fact that I've missed a few of today's finds before because the machine wasn't right! Not that much but more than I really expected from this site!
The round ball on the right measures .700 to .705. The .32 Colt with the uncut sprue is neat. The button on the left has a "WATERBURY BUTTON CO." rmdc back mark.

Thanks For Looking, Happy Hunting!
Come On Wet Ground & Cooler Temps, Roger

The pistol bullet is pretty neat indeed. Its cool finding different ones like that.
 
Very nice. Glad to hear you are back in the hunt. The bullet with the uncut spreu is really neat. Never seen one like that before. I've found a few cut off sprues, but never one complete like that.

Keep on diggin'

Nice Finds!

Welcome back to dirty hands and dirt under the nails! Another poster mentioned a pistol bullet with a sprue. I think that may be a cartridge box or cap box finial, at least, that's what it looks like to me.

Great finds!
