Hi, All:
Had another nice hunt with my new Deep Tech Vista Gold. Found a nice assortment of relics from the Civil War era ghost town. Top left is the remains of a pin fire cartredge. Iron ring is believed to be a rifle barrel band. Electrolosis will tell the tale. Some melted lead and five shot bullets. The coins are an 1865 Indian Head penny on the right. Heavily corroded. Was lucky to get a date. On the left is a very nice Shield Nickle dated 1867. Would rather have silver, but beggars can't be choosers. It was a fun day in the somewhat muddy corn field.
Thanks for looking,
