I found this on Thanksgiving. Was wondering if anyone can help me ID it. Quarter is there to help get an idea as to the size. Let me know your thoughts and thanks for looking.

I’m far from an expert but to me it looks like this confederate .36 caliber bullet. I’d look into it if nobody gives you an id. (After looking at them side by side it doesn’t look as similar anymore so maybe not)

I'm pretty sure your bullet is fairly modern. Clean out the grove and see if you see lines in the grove. That method of loading bullets didn't come about until after the war.
