You definitely have at least one civilwar bullet, but to tell you what the rest are would take a better close up of the bullets. But I would definitely hit that field again a few more times.

Dan.....for a correct ID you have to have EXACT measurements and often the weight. Use calipers if you have them. Numerous bullets were used that appear similar but vary in caliber by only a small amount. Sure appears some are period but that is the only way to get a good ID. Great finds.:icon_thumleft:

I am not a bullet expert by any means, most of what I have learned has come from this forum. However I do think I see a post CW fired 45-70 Springfield in there. Most I think (except round balls and one or two others) are just after CW era.

Looks like 13,14,15,16,18,19 are more modern. As far as the rest without measurements and weight it's anyone's guess but they look like the cw bullets I have in my collection
