More digging and I find these smalls.
Nice telescope cup and container
Handsome Hardee from Round Hill, Va
Clipped brass eagle from Sanger Station and often overlooked small fight.
A small wrapped file of wrapped caps
Several rounds: Burnside, Spencer and 2 others whose type escapes me...but you'll know.

Nice pieces. Looks like 2 CS Gardner bullets.
 
They are 2 "Gardner" CS bullets Invented and developed by F.J.Gardner. Made in Richmond and Fayetteville. Sometimes called "Fowler" bullets that association can not be documented. There are at least 10 variations of Gardner bullets. {McGee & Mason, Pg 32}.

If you are a ACW bullet collector and don't have this book...it might be time to pony up the $$ and get serious about it.
