COULD THIS BE carved ACORN #2 ??

[zaxfire69]

Well I posted last week that I thought I found a bullet that was carved into an Acorn. WELL Some said YAY SOME SAID NAY>..Well I Went back to the spot where I dug the 1st bullet and low and behold about 2 Feet from the 1st bullet hole I got another signal.






I am blown away at the thought of 2 carved bullets of any kind...Let alone two as nice as these two. This second one is no doubt in my mind carved, because you can see where the flat blade made the cuts to the bullet on the top of it. Once again let me know what you all think. I'm displaying them proudly. zaxfire69....

They certainly had something in mind David. Definitely carved on. We get only about one out of 100-150 bulletds here. HH, Q.

I'm thinking whoever carved this one is about as nutty as I am!!! I literally found this one 2 feet from the first one I found. Q..I'm happy as happy can be.

Awesome! Love field art. I'd say that's what it is. My dad found a carved bullet into a shape of a d$@! Pretty funny. Think he's found two like that congrats

Ha Ha VonClemen29...I hope I don't find one of those, but if I do I will take a picture of it for sure. That is funny man. Wang!! Who would carve that?

Not sure but a carved bullet is always one for display.

 

[zaxfire69]

Birdman you are right. A carved bullet is always a cool find! I have 4 or 5 that I have found over the years at this site. There are more out there I guarantee !

Two great looking carved bullets. Carved bullets are the BEST!!!
Look like acorns to me.
Quindy found a great one too about a year ago I think.
Congrats,

Let me go dig it up. I dug it when I first started detecting and didn't know what it was. Hold On and I'll go find it Q!..

That is it on the left there. Not a great picture of it. I took it with an older Cell phone. Q I have tons of oddities...I just have them all wrapped up in tissue and put up. I need to get them all out and take pictures with my wife's camera. I know I have some nipple protectors in my safe with my better bullets.

He was probably wishing he had some Acorns to eat I don't know.

Thanks Matt092079. Sure does look like they were going for it. I am tempted to go and get a bullet and try to make one...I know I can't do that though.

The one on the left of your group photo looks like the carver was going for a shark design. Great finds!
