They are running a 'Duke' marathon on AMC. I just watched "Rio Grande", and it was filmed on location at Ft. Clark Springs near San Antonio. If you find yourself going that direction, there are thousands of acres to hunt. The post was originally abandoned in 1859, and the China and Silverware buried.[R.E. Lee was a former Commandant.] Its never been found. When it was reactivated during the Indian Wars the Army brought in Seminole Scouts to help track Geronimo and the other Apaches, so there are relics over a broad time span
to be found, even through WW-2. They even tried Elephants and Camels to see if they would last longer than horses. Buttons from those two Corps are two-piece, with the front being rubber and the back brass. As they start at about $1500, it would be a great find. I really enjoyed hunting there years ago, but there are Diamondbacks, and cactus everywhere.
