I had seen a thread in which a user was wondering if their find was a civil war era poker chip (lead), and can't see to find that board. His looks similar to mine that I found a couple of years ago, but my chip had a face inscribed on it, with some lettering on one side. I can't make out the face or lettering, but in a couple of these photos (I color enhanced) if one squints their eyes, you can almost make out a well known general. Ill let you be the judge.
Also, I had some other poker or soldier bored game pieces that I did not know was in my closet for the past couple of years. In this one area, I found some nice mini balls, shot and dropped, and when I found these two pieces of lead, I did not look hard enough. Sure as day, if you look closely you will see a spade and the number 13. The other piece was not as good of quality, but still you can make out what they were trying to carve.
Finds were from and near Warren County, MS area.
