The top photo includes cavalry and artillery officer should boards, an enlisted man´s hat cord that I believe also to be artillery colors, Marine corps shako plates and a belt buckle and bullet I don´t recognize. The second is a grouping of Federal belt plates (the oval ones) and cartridge box plates (the round ones) with an assortment of fired and unfired bullets. The bottom is a group of artillery shells without the fuses. I´m not up on values, but that´s a quick look see of what you have.

Thank you, Sir.

First grouping includes half of a Georgia wreath buckle and second grouping appears to have some fired Whitworth bullets.

For the cannonballs measure the diameter and then go to www.CivilWarArtillery.com
He has a great site that will tell you what they are. At a glance I'd value from $200 to $500 plus. More if you can prove where they were dug from.

@ramkuma nice collection. Any chance the items have known backgrounds or where they were found, originated from?

Could you post the back of the Georgia tongue. Also, The back of the US plates to see if they are cartridge box plates or belt plates. The cannon balls are 12lb and a few are Confederate. The bullets in the yellow circle appear to be Whitworth bullets and are rare.

The rack that the cannon balls are sitting on looks a bit light duty to carry that weight!

You are not joking. That is pretty much what I have my Desktop Puter and Printer sitting on, only not as wide.

I don't unfortunately. One of the great problems in relics is no one georeferences anything, so half the history is lost.

Can I see the back of the shoulder boards please? I know you aren't selling but it's what I enjoy the most.

What a shame those artillery boards look so lonely. They should be with my insignia!

The cavalry boards are no good. Artillery is good.
