First Silver!

[ATP-Relic-Hunter]

Hello everyone,

I feel so great! I finally found my first silver with my new AT-Pro! What an awesome feeling. What I actually found was a 1948s dime. And it is actually in pretty good condition.

Also, after doing a little more research, I have surmised the bullet I found at Bradley Park is in deed a Civil War bullet. I realize it is a little difficult to tell just by looking at the pics, but seeing it in person, there are no doubts about what it actually is when compared to other Civil War pistol bullets. The bullet itself measures right around .32 in diameter. I am not sure what caliber that equates to, but maybe someone a little more knowledgeable could help me out with that.

Thank you and see everyone soon,

Rodney

Way to go Rodney! BIG congratulations on your first silver and you'll be finding many more. That is so cool to find "firsts'.

Maybe this will help decide what caliber:

Congratulations on the silver Rodney

.32 inch would be 32 caliber.
