The weather was cooperating... I got out for the first time this year! After a long drive I had about five hours to detect. I grabbed a spare set of batteries and started walking to a favorite area that always produced because after my winter wait I didn't want to get skunked! I'll spare you the blow-by-blow... but my first find was an unmarked eagle button! I found two eagle buttons total today, a pile of nails and some scrap iron (not shown except ladle handle). A bunch of tin lids, a pocketfull of 45-70 bullets and a few casings. Finally, a little button hinge thingy and a "German Silver" suspender buckle. All items from Indian War area U.S. soldiers circa mid 1860s through late 1890s. All said, I had a great day!  Enjoy the pictures, thanks for looking. |

Those are some odd looking bullets. What are they ? Was that a repeating rifle or something ? Quoting the below sources to help articulate a response... They were probebly from a model 1873 Springfield .45-70 carbine. The accuracy and range of this weapon made it more effective in many ways for warfare on the Plains. The .45-70 rifle cartridge was developed at the U.S. Army's Springfield Armory for use in the Springfield Model 1873 .45 caliber rifle, known to collectors (but never to the Army) as the "Trapdoor Springfield." The new cartridge was a replacement for the stop-gap .50-70 cartridge which had been adopted in 1866, one year after the end of the American Civil War. Source: http://www.texasbeyondhistory.net/redriver/weapons.html & wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.45-70Those rounds I show are all .45-70, and sometimes I get a few .50-70 rounds. Of course I've dug all manner of musketballs too. Hope that helped. |

I think that thing ya got is the cover to a chalk filled plumb line for layin straight lines. Fellars got it all rong with them pictures.
That's interesting, TNG— and welcome to the forum! Can you post some photos showing the item as you've identified it? Most of the older chalk-lines or snap-lines that I've seen look something like this: |

Thanks for looking all… I’m glad you enjoyed the pictures… And the lead, well you gotta wonder who was hit with some of that stuff. TT - I can virtually guarantee that all these rounds were fired for food or practice, or dropped. But I know them things woulda done some damage! P.S.> Did ya put that quote below your avatar, before?, or after reading Monty's post? Yup… decided that even though I give advice I didn’t want to get blamed if it was bad, so that’s my disclosure statement! Any idea on the tin can lids?
One is a Ponds (cold cream) lid… the others are unknowns, and unmarked. There is a post military history in the area and those lids/containers might be as recent as 1910s. Is it a Scovill Button?
Button #1 is unmarked. Button #2 is back marked SCOVILL MFG CO. WATERBURY (dating this button 1850 - 1865) |

I'm new to this hobby. I got my metal detector from my son and daughter in law for Christmas. It's about 10 below zero here in Minnesota and more snow than I want. So I won't be able to use it soon here. I'm originally from Missoula,(born and raised), but moved to Minnesota temporarily 40+ years ago. I miss the mountains and Missoula in general.
By the way, great finds, I'd be curious where you were. I have Family still in the Frenchtown area and around Bonner. I'd love to "poke" around those parts sometime.
Several years ago, my mother, now deceased, took me up in the hills by Huson and showed me an old decapitated homesight she said her Grandparents had homesteaded years ago. I doubt anyone has ever hunted in that area. I'd settle for some nails or anything from there.

Thanks for the response, I'm glad my finds got ya ready to do some diggin! I hope you enjoy the hobby as much as I have for the last 30 years. I've only lived in Montana for 12 years or so... and love diggin the nails too. I think it would be cool to check out that old homestead if you can and have a blast doign it! Dig everything! Good luck, happy hunting, and welcome to TreasureNet! Jim |
