✅ SOLVED Flat Button #12? & Bullet?

[DCMetal]

I found these two items in my yard today, both were at least 8" down.

I believe this is a flat button but I'm not sure. There is still a little silver left on it and the back is fairly toasted. It has the number 12 on it and it's smaller than a dime.



The other item looks to be a bullet or a weight or something. It's about 1/2 in length and while it's hard to see, there is a ridge at the bottom and seam marks on the side. My scale is broken so I can't weigh it. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks for for looking!

Yep, a bullet. Get precise measurements for proper ID.

I'd say the numbered item is the head of an Acro storm window numbering tack

Or it could be a small railroad tie dating nail head, which tend to be a bit bigger.

Very interesting... I've never heard of either. I have found a railroad uniform button and lots of railroad spikes in my yard. So maybe that it. Thanks for the info!!!
