So I was out last night showing a friend how to metal detect. We hit my hillside property. I’ve really been saving it for when I get the nox but figured, it can’t hurt lol. House was built in 64 but we had civil war battles here. Amongst other things.

I posted a pic last night of my love token

Also found these 3 12 gauge shotgun headstamps, any date y’all can help with?

Here’s the first, it was a brass casing but mostly gone.

Then there’s this one, not sure what the rest of the cartridge was.

Followed by this one, also not sure on cartridge type. It’s hard to read but top says western made in USA No 12 bottom says xpert

All in all I think he’s hooked lol, it was a good time and a good spot. We barely covered any ground and he was just wondering about. There’s bound to be more [emoji41]

Cool finds. That last star token is one that you could get punched out by a machine at fairs etc. You could choose what the lettering would be.
