Found what I'm assuming is buckshot, but not entirely sure. Some type of bullet, an old lea and perrins (worcestershire) bottle topper and some oddly shaped thing. A little on the heavy side for its size. Anyone know what it could be? It appears to have some numbers on it but I can't make them out. Any info on anything I found would be appreciated! I found all of these in a local river near where a small Civil war battle took place.

Better photos would help. The 2 ring bullet looks like large caliber, maybe .45, and from factory ammo from the late 1800s or early 1900s unless it is a more modern hand cast one for handloading. The ball appears to be about the same diameter as the bullet. If so, it is too large for buckshot and likely is for a muzzleoading rifle.
