Awesome day in my yard

I recently moved into a house I'm renting that was built in the 1950s. It's on a small .25 to .50 acre lot and there was a small skirmish during the civil war about 2 or 3 miles away. I got lucky enough to find a Sharpe's minie ball, a lead soldier made by dinky toys in Liverpool England, 6 wheat pennies (oldest was 1941), 1943 nickel, and a bunch of clad coins. All of this was in my yard, my next goal is to get permission from my neighbors.

Thank you. Found the minie in backyard near a big red maple tree and the soldier was by a big gum tree in the front yard. These are my coolest relics so far on my first season of hunting.
