Back to Trenton

[Civil War Nut]

Hidy. Went to Trenton the last two days at the same old spots. Did find a little bit, so here it is,, snuff box,, buckles,, arrow head,, two .69 cal. balls,, two .58 cal.,, and one bullet I have never found before so Evan, Del, CSA, Reb, and all you Civil War folks I need some help on it the best I could mike it out at was .57 to .58 cal., and I dont think it was carved on, if it was they done a good job on it.,, two .39 cal. ,,and a tag with a 3 on it, anyone know any thing on it, I was hoping it might be a slave tag . The top broke off while cleaning it, Thanks for any help.

wow some cool relics CWN i see a parasol (umbrella) part inside the buckle , an inside part to a pocket watch ( holey item with the writting) as for the bullet its a new one to me , are you sure its not a carved one :huh:
the numbered tag could be a baggage claim tag or a hotel key number or even a livery tag for a horse

Thinks Del. It could be carved, I have looked at it real close, and if it is they don a fine and true job of it. I havent got it in none of my books.

Nice finds CWN :shocked04: :clapping: Great selection of relics. I too think it's a carved (chess piece?) bullet. Just doesn't look like it would survive well being fired :dontknow: I'm not sure on slave tags, but I think they were all the same diamond type and were issued from the same location?? I think it is some type of tag like Del mentioned. Super hunt and a lot of good relics. You have a great location there :yes:

 

[Evan/tn]

Yep I'm going with a carved bullet unless it's a very obscure country picket :dontknow: it's not in my books either,it's one fine looking bullet though 8)
Trenton is still producing some good ones so get out there and get some more hunting in before tick season :ticked: :white:usaflag::
Great hunt Earl!
