I found a artillery gimlet yesterday. It's a first for me. I found some spigot & lead also. Nice day out to boot.

That gimlet survived in amazingly good condition! Out on the same field?
It was is in a pasture. My buddy dug a eagle A button there. I found the pistol bullets about 400 yards away on the same farm. It's part of a cavalry action. These relics came from this spot.

That is an interesting find…. Great condition too!!!
Other neat finds too you made.
It's loaded with iron & a electric fence is right by it. I'm going to ask the farmer to turn it off & give my gpx a try. The ground is hot.
