    Persistence Pays Off With Confederate Infantry Button!

    I got a new permission this week for a spot that should be excellent for Civil War relics. I've been wanting to ask on this site for a while now and got the chance Wednesday afternoon. Well I detected hard for 3 hours and only found a crusty Eagle button along with a ton of ring pulls. It was...

    4th Silver Half From The Same Yard

    I stopped by my recent permission yesterday where I’ve had some good luck at with old coins and relics. I’ve hunted the main yard from just about every direction so I decided to start hitting areas around the back. I hit the center circle of the turnaround part of the driveway. I found a few...

    Slow Hunt Turns Epic With My First Seated Half & Quarter!!!

    So I went back last night to the new spot I got permission for on Saturday. I was still on a rush from all the awesome relics I dug then and was excited to get back there. I started out in a field next to the house and didn't get much but a fired Williams cleaner. So I went over to check out the...

    Awesome New Spot Lots Of Old Coins & Relics

    I went out Saturday afternoon looking to get on a new spot. There's an old farm that has been cut up over the years between new roads and development. A house built in the 40's sits on 20 acres in front of where an older house that burned down used to sit. I knocked on the door and I was given...

    First Hole Big Silver...That Was Way Too Easy!

    I have mainly focused on researching and hunting for Civil War relics over the last year or so and I've had pretty good luck doing that. This past week I've had the itch to get on an old school hunt for coins, so I flipped back through my notes and decided to make the drive out to an old school...

    Awesome Civil War Relics With Some Nice First

    I have been hunting a nice spot that the bulldozers are destroying to put up the next big complex of progress. It's a race around here to save a few relics before being lost forever to development. I've dug a bunch of bullets and buttons but unfortunately the soil is tough on them and I normally...

    Civil War Relics From A New Spot Need Help With An ID

    I got permission to hunt a new spot close to some heavy CW action. It's a big lot that the house was torn down recently. Most of the ground has been disturbed but there is still some good ground around the edges. I hunted there a few times this week and have found a nice variety of relics. The...

    A Big First For Me, Confederate Snake Buckle!

    I went out looking to get permission on a big yard that is around some Civil War action. The little lady that owns the place was pretty upset that she has caught guys sneaking on and digging and she just wasn't going to allow anyone to hunt it. It's pretty sad that this goes on and hurts the...

    1840 o Seated Dime And A Handful Of CW Lead

    I had some time on Saturday to hunt back at the spot I found the 1833 Half Dime a couple of weeks ago. I started where I left off and the first signal was a nice Minie ball. Second signal was a 12-41 on the Etrac and I dug out an old dark silver dime instead of the usual wheat penny for that...

    Went On A Night Hunt And I Got Busted!

    I have been way too busy to even think about detecting the last few months, but I finally made some time to get out in the last few weeks. I've been trying to focus more on Civil War relics and getting onto those type of sites. I went back to a spot where I have been finding bullets and I was...

I also dug a large piece of a lead sabot off of an artillery shell. I went back to this site on Monday hoping to get a few more keepers. It was slow but I had...

    Another Big First For Me! US Eagle Breast Plate!

    I got a little detecting time on Sunday and went to a new spot in hopes of some Civil War relics. I've been trying to locate ground in a heavily developed area to find pockets to dig in. This spot is pretty much a swamp surrounded by thickets and some small areas of grass. I got started and...
