Civil War Relic Hunt in Georgia

Well over the holidays I went back to good ole Georgia for 2 weeks and I couldn't go without taking my Infinium with me. I had a blast and did the tourist thing which was a little different since I used to live there.

I found these relics at the Battle of Pine Knob. A small skirmish near my parents house. And also at the Battle of Gilgal Church which is about a mile away from the other Battle, and they were fought on the same day as they were the same line that the Federals attacked the same time. They lost both Battles. Then proceeded a month later to burn Atlanta...ha, no big loss the population of Atlanta is 5.6 million now:yikes: .

The reilcs are many percussion caps, pistol bullets, one iron shot from cannon ball other stuff not sure of and the best find was a Federal Button. Which was in great shape until I put in my pouch. I had alot of other junk in there like big hunks of iron crap and it broke a hole in the button as you can see from the pics, man I was mad after seeing that:rant: . Also a pic of all the junk I found. And of course a bonus pic of me playing with my sisters pot belly pig...:super:

Hey, Alan........ really nice finds. For buttons and other fragile recoveries, you might try old pill bottles stuffed with cotton balls or tissue paper. I keep 3 or 4 in my 7-pocket belt. The "belt" came from Bass Pro, and can hold lots of items. HH
