We went out to a place in town today where an old store once stood..and found these. Can someone help date the shotgun shell head, notice the primer is "raised" above the brass..and what are those little words around the primer?
Also, the long metal thing with thin holes..is that a Harmonica reed?..if so, is there anyway to date it? ..The other round thing is a locket or broach perhaps?
Last is the bullet, I noticed the single "ring" groove in it..does that mean its civil war era?
Any info on dates/time periods for this little find would be great!
