I've been cleaning up everything I found carefully and patiently when I can find the time to. but it's paying off.. hopefully my photos start improving so you guys can help me out.. check out this bullet. I noticed it's decorated with Indians characters and there's a door way carved into it when I look at it from different angles it changes forms.. from a witch to a couple guys... what ya think 20180128_011254.jpg20180128_011018.jpg20180128_010944.jpg20180128_010834.jpg20180128_011114.jpg20180128_010928.jpg20180128_010834.jpg

Looks like just a gouge in the bullet.

I’m not being a rearend here but man those are just scratches in the bullet soft lead.. there’s nothing there. I’ve hit a many of bullets with a shovel or even a rock as I’ve dug it out of the ground and it does the same exact thing.

Does it matter what resolution photos I'm taking then posting.. because when I look on my other devices my photos definitely do not look like they do on my new Galaxy Note 8 phone .I'm taking the pictures with.. even when I showed a couple buddies by texting them photos of what I found they thought I was going crazy seeing ship and tell in stories.... but then they showed me what my photos look like on their phones and I understood why they thought i had mental issues..but I'm trying different photo resolution and hopefully everyone else can see what I'm seeing.. check out the bottom side of the bullet. there's more art work.. hopefully ya all can see it..

Still nothing. Environmental and human damage. I would take that bullet off your hands though

dam! I just got back from my spot m.detecting..well thank God I'm back finding more copper coins again!! but all this other stuff I'm still finding ..the reason I think the bullet is more than a bullet is that almost everything else I find and can't identify .. all have the same window looking engravings or cut out in the metal with tiny little people and animal characters ..and they all have the number "7" and "5" randomly painted on it.. and all usually have a little silver Genie looking dude with a tail like a sperm tail...I'll post a few photos of the sperm that will probably do no good ... I should stick with identifying the mostly blank coins and save what little sanity I have left... I no I'm on a old Indian site or something like that ..proving it to myself is another thing20180128_180803.jpg

Treasure_hunter am I missing something on these bullets or coins. Before I feel like my eyesight is going bad I need another expert opinion

A normal Civil war bullet, a normal corroded copper coin of some sort. I think you are looking too hard, trying to read more into it.

well I found another lead blob. so I may as well keep this thread goin.. I got fed up and soaked my lead blob in reg peroxide for a hour.. then I hit it with a toothbrush.. these things got dates all over them.. they look silver with gold trim... both these pieces I found within a foot of each other a post a few pictures but I really think they're coins and the only thing I can find similar is a clipped cob but I cannot find any other similar pictures the date seems to be 1557 1357 1257 it's stamped all over it depending how you hold it totally drive me nuts it's very similar to a dull faded colonial copper coin as you hit it with a light and magnifying glass at different angles you can see different images only reason I know that is cuz I have about 50 of them and trying to figure out but I'll start with this first the big piece ways 18gram small piece weighs 13 grams together they weigh just about 1 troy ounce and I found them within a foot of each other. The picture with a black background came from Notre Dame website https://coins.nd.edu/ColCoin/ColCoinText/Sp-Cobs.1.html20180216_160035.jpg20180216_184104.jpg20180216_184227.jpg1518835954820.jpgSp-hfR.rev.jpg

oh and the rocks I've Ben posting are actually real.. I have giving up asking people if they see people on the my rocks.. but even though I've been trying to ignore the rock people I've come across much better pieces to show people..I'm finding thumbnail sized rocks up to every huge boulder at my copper slug&lead blob dig site ...I flew my drone dji mavic above the site to map it.. and I couldn't help noticing the rock people ...it was freaking me out ...so I went lookin... some of them actually dated and this seems to be a theme of witches the oldest date that I can find is 1650 ish I guess it kind of makes sense seeing how I'm real real close to Salem Massachusetts...here's a few pics..I really hope y'all can see something other than rocks1518837469173.jpg1518837565632.jpg

I need to replace my tobacco with what you have my friend. For real I’m not seeing anything. If you’re seeing something I’m not you’ve got some impressive eyesight

No dates, no people, just rocks and blobs.

The last picture is a fired lead modern bullet that struck some of your rocks.

ok definitely glad I didn't melt down my mystery pile of lead..unless the make lead coins back then .. today I hit a hole that poured bullets .. I swore I was at the target range digging in the backdrops .. I was getting killer signals of silver and gold and kept finding lead shot.. then I cleaned a hand full with some water and I had a hand full off shiny date coins .. of dated bullets maybe.. you guys tell me I have no clue other than the little bit I've learned about coins over the past few months.. if guess these tiny silver bullets/coins must be "bits" ???? I'll post up sum of my to dogazzz photos I seem to take.. cuz I don't think out of this hole post to date ..not one person can see what I'm seeing in my view finder.. so one more try... so far I think 1547 is the date stamped... I'm having a hard time reading these old coins.. if ya hold one way it says one thing and another way another thing.. guys to be some counterfeiting thing or sumthing...
. All of this is coming out of the same 2 foot square area it almost looks like it possibly was one big giant coin at one time??? because I've even found what looks like two or 3 parts that are like stands or clips that holds it together?? all this is new to me...but I finally have a rock with people and even just a people I managed to pull of the rock I'll post that later..I'm cleaning them slowly because I dunno what I'm doin and if there's any value to this stuff I assume I'm better off.. 1519182757192.jpg1519182808734.jpg1519182852604.jpg

Molten metal... nothing fancy or suspicious. Some looks aluminum and some looks like lead. I don’t see any faces or numbers or people dancing around a fire
