So was out detecting and almost called it a day when I decided to try another spot. Not long after pulled a two ringer out, then another, then a three ringer out.

Then 3 feet from the hole I pulled the three ringer out I pulled out the flattened piece of metal. Trench art? Not far away from there I pulled a musket ball out. Did I come upon a small skirmish?

What’s your thoughts? Also every time I dug into the ground was finding charred wood. Could have been from a previous controlled burn or was it a camp site?

The flat one looks like an impacted bullet with the circle/cross feature being the old base of it. The "design" is most likely a feature from the lead casting/machine making process. I would think it's probably old, but made after the civ stuff.
