Which ones, the Civil War or Revolutionary War? I am surprised no one found them with a metal detector. I have been to that site literally dozens of times, and never saw anyone with a metal detector. I wouldn't expect to. I might sally over to the Old North Bridge visitors' center on Saturday and have a look.

The town of Acton, just west of Concord, has Isaac Davis's plow, and bloody shirt. Isaac Davis was captain of the Acton Minutemen, and died in the first volley at the Old North Bridge. It is his plow that is depicted in the Daniel Chester French Minuteman Statue by the Old North Bridge. The face is his great nephew, who was said to be his 'spit and image'.

Yeah - the value of them is what I first thought of.

Second thing I thought of was it was balls from missed shots while out hunting.
