2 days ago I detected a particular spot in Goldsboro, NC and came up with the find of my lifetime. I have been here and detected hard since 1989, and suddenly there it was. It has been ID'ed as a clip-corner CS buckle. Perseverance has finally paid off. The Fisher F-75 LTD gave me a solid 83 signal, I popped the plug out with my shovel and at the bottom of the hole I saw the buckle laying, bottom side up. When I saw the 3 hooks, I knew I had something great. I reached down and turned it over and BAM, CS. Does anyone have opinions as to the worth? I have already received one estimate, but am interested in hearing others. I heard opinions also that a Union soldier probably picked it up in Bentonville and carried it to Goldsboro and lost it while they camped here. Great stuff! I will have to add pics one at a time, as it will not let me load 6 for some reason.

It is also possible that it was dropped by a Confederate POW.

Hey Mike! Great to hear from you. Sure enough, the F-75 has been a great detector. Much more chatty than my old Spectrum, but I have adjusted and learned it a bit more. The thing about this buckle is that about any detector would have picked it up fine. It was only about 4" down. Just have to keep swinging. I found it in a rather dangerous part of town, so many detectorists probably do not hit those kind of areas. I was packing heat, concealed carry license in pocket. You just never know. But nobody had ever messed with me yet. I hope you have been doing well, and thanks for the demo you gave me a few years back. Bryan
