SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/26/2020 02:09 am Well, I say its a Big Fat "BooBy Head ". See the bottom curl ? Then bottom goes choppy without curls like the rest . Then what you don't see is the actual shoulder but I see it in hand . Just wanted a second opinion and grade. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/27/2020 03:34 am I dug this at an old, possibly site of 2 houses. We( metal detecting partner ) suspect there was a fire because there was a ton of finds in the Pen across the DIRT road . I also found this Civil War Button. Report this Post to the Staff
