Found what I believe are four musket balls metal detecting my front lawn several months back. They do have the charistics of musket balls. They could be Revolutionary War era. That would be cool. What do you Thank? Do I have 1775 Revolutionary war era. musket balls.
Found in FL ? You show nothing to show size. If they measure .31 (or appear to have been), then its buckshot. Now, to confuse matters more, buckshot size balls are used currently, but was also used for hundreds of years. Used in "buck & ball", blunderbusses as well as rifles & pistols. I put 18 - .31" shot in my naval blunderbuss.
