Never found a bullet before. Found 3 today?

Today I found my first bullets. Two for sure, maybe 3. I'm not sure that these are old, but they are better than a clad penny. I'm not sure if the center one is a bullet or not. Does the big one look like Civil War era? I'm in NE Kansas, and these were just up the hill from where I live, in a beanfield. It wasn't somewhere that I would normally have hunted, but my brother-in-law was arrowhead hunting and I figured I'd tag along. He found quite a few pieces of arrowheads, but no complete ones. I found a couple of buckles and half of a horseshoe too.
 
No pics...can't help. TomB
 
The bullets have been in the ground a while, but I agree they are modern. The larger two ringer has crimp marks in the rings which would tell you they are post civilwar. That method of loading a bullet did not come along until after the war.
 
Thanks for your input. I'll keep searchin', and I'll have something neat to post on here one day. You just wait.:crazy:
