Ok found an awesome kentucky militia civil war officers coat button at a skirmish site the the union fought Morgan's raiders!

Can anyone tell me what the brass thing is in the pics next to the penny (penny is for sizing)

Also if someone could help me on what the thing is in the last three pictures and also the broach thing as well!!

I also pulled a woman's relief corps medal 1883, and it has the woman's name it was issued to on the back, I'm gonna attempt to track her down!!!! Atleast HER FAMILY!!!


Oh YEAH. Check out the old Henry bullet casing with the RIMFIRE strike mark!!

Pioneer suspender buckle (PAT may 2, 1900)

Thanks in advance for the help!!

Well slap me silly for not using the right wording on " JACKET OR BULLET"!!! I really hit the target of being a soft spot in your "Master gunsmith qualifications" and I certainly apologize for not knowing that before researching your qualifications.

Like I said in the question " Please don't take offense" but I see your very sensitive when questioned anything regarding the above said, so lets leave it at that as I'm totally in the wrong for not knowing Jack sh#* about the topic and offending your qualifications.

Agreed
 

I'm telling you it's a bullet jacket! And if it has writing on it then I guess you found a copper jacket from a bullet that has writing on it. But I know for a fact that its a piece of bullet

Dig until your arm falls off

Recon I'm gonna go with jacket, like I said I assumed that's what it was until I seen writing,, anyhow thanks
