found my birthday present

[TNHunter]

I went out hunting on Monday for my birthday. I was hunting an area of the field I have been over several times. I got VDI on my M6 that was dime but is also the range I find most of my three ringers in. I was pleasantly surprised when I found a coin in my plug. It was my oldest coin to date and I finally broke into the 1800's. I had a 1892 Barber dime New Orleans mint. I went on to find a rivet that has a unique pattern on the end of it. I also found a three ringer that had hit something hard. I found this 2 ringer with flat base. Any idea what kind it is? I also found this iron spike thingy that I don't have any idea on either. It was a great birthday. I did the dance and said a quick thank you prayer.

Nice! Make sure the iron thingy is IRON, I have found several COPPER artifacts that look just like that.

Nice Finds!!! That flattened minnie ball looks like a Gardner to me and the 2 ring carbine may be a Burnside????

Very nice Paul and Happy Birthday! The iron piece is horse equipment, either a snaffle or water bit. Cool finds!
