Quick lunch hunt today. The bullet is interesting and I'm not sure if it's CW or not. It's not like any other CW bullet I've recovered from this spot. It has a seam from the tip to the base, two rings and a shallow, conical hole in the bottom. I'm not sure about the small round ball, either. In the last pic, I show the round ball next to a musket ball and the bullet next to my Sharp's I found another time. The larger lead disc appears to be a bag seal - there's still a "5" on the one side with the narrow slashes on it. The opposite side appears to have a stamped X or cross. The triangular lead shape might be a part of a bag seal (or the seal itself). That last item... no idea. Carved lead piece of some kind? Darker-looking, but has lead oxide when scratched and the weight of lead. Regardless, a lot of lead over lunch! Not much else...
