Hi Gang,
Went out for a few hours today. Found a couple of dropped 3 ringers, what may be part of a pocket watch and what may be a boot heel plate.
The bottom bullet was found in a creek bank, about to fall into the creek. After I pinpointed it, all I had to do to expose it was move some leaves out of the way. I went back to the house and grabbed the camera for the shot.
So I went up the bank and kept searching. Found the next bullet and the heel plate in the same hole at the top of the bank. The erosion must have exposed the first bullet.
The relic books show that the heel plate could be a mule shoe, due to it's shape. But the size is small. It fits closely with the heel on my shoes. The length is 4.375 and the width is 3.25. Any help is appreciated to confirm what this could be.
