Long Island Bullets

[Ralphw]

Any bullet experts out there who can tell me anything about these...
they were found at a place that has been a military encampment from the 1700s till the 1960s.

the one is 7/16 dia.

I found the 1817 large cent at the same place

Thanks

Those bullets look modern.

I was wondering that.... most of the old bullets and balls I have found were white from age.
although the end has the look of that.

They are .45 ACP 230 grain full metal jacket for the Colt model 1911 or 1911a automatic pistol,or a couple of revolvers of the same vintage. Standard military issue from about 1911 until recently.

I would have to agree.
