all,

well have found close to 8 shells in this park in my neighborhood, which i had found out through nice older gentleman lives in neighborhood , that the park used to be wooded up until close to 30 years ago. other shells i have been able to Id thanks to a shell stamp chart, but i can't find this particular shell on there, and this one was found in close proximity today to two others i found.if anybody could help with this , thanks in advance...i guess they used to hunt late 1800-early 1900 in this area, no silver there as of yet, except clad, and the 1800 button i found...and all the shells..lol..
