OLD BULLET IDENTIFICATION PLEASE!

[V&K]

Went out detecting today and found these located off an old trail.. in central Florida, along the Saint John River..
There are two different bullets.. one is definitely led. The other seems to have a copper plating? Any opinion appreciated!

Always need measurements when IDing bullets. First could be mussel loader second could be 45acp

Got it! First time finding older bullets with no markings.. think we found a good spot.
The one that is not lead is 10mm
& The lead one is 9mm. Thank you!!

The copper 9mm one is modern. 1900 or newer. The other one looks older and is possibly a 38-40 which is 40 caliber/10mm. Thats my guess anyways. Neat finds!!!

Thank you! Kinda figured the second one was not very old. It was found around the same area as the other. Didn't have much time today, but I will be going back the this area and doing some more detecting. It's quite vast, with tons of history.

Nice YouTube channel! ��
