This was found on property that was a Union encampment the winter of 1862-63. I know it's a long shot, but does anyone have any idea what it could be? It was found in the same hole with the other items shown.
No updates yet - sorry. We moved a couple of months ago and I haven't found my 5 gallon bucket of Evaporust in the garage yet. But on the upside, I finished painting the basement and got the shelves up and organized and the reloading bench set up this rainy 4th of July weekend. I hope to have an update Friday morning.
