Bullets found.

I was curious if someone could identify these bullets that I've unearth while metal detecting. One is thin and smaller than the other. I cannot find anything similar on the internet.

Can you tell us what part of the world you are from. Welcome to Friendly.

Of course. I found them in Toronto, ON. I am Canadian, eh. :-)

Well the smaller one looks like a 22 cal. Without a size reference.

The larger one looks like a 32 cal pistol. Maybe a 38 or a 357 but it doesn't look that big.

Yeah I figured that they were not that old, but the small one looks different compared to the 22. I see online. They are led and have quite the weight to them.

Thanks for the help. I am heading back to the same area tomorrow and I hope to find some more.

The small one could be a .32 and the larger a.45 ?

Sorry but the bullets are post civil war era. Anyhow, it's all about digging and learning.

You never know what will be in your next dig hole. Good luck!

Yep, the crimp marks on the bullets give it away, means they had brass cartridges on them as well.

Bullets found.
