What is you number 1 buck list relic?

[NickSwingLOW]

Hey guys, I'm still seeking my first GW button. I think i will have one before the year is out! I would also love to dig a slave tag, although I'm sure I would have better luck digging down south on that quest. What is your number 1 item, that has so far eluded you?

I'd like a seated US coin or earlier. Here in MO that's kinda tough.

Why would you have better luck in the south on the slave ID.?

 

[GB1]

well it was my a Southern Cross of Honor but now its a C.S.A belt plate or button

 

[Lovebottles]

Civil era 3 ringer or just a bottle from pre 1830.

Because the only authentic slave tags were from Charleston, SC. Any other tags you see on eBay are bogus.

I would love to find a complete 3 Merry Widows tin....not crushed and beat up, but in like new condition.
It doesn’t have to be empty either.

Of all things, I have tried and tried for a large cent. I have a bunch I inherited from my Dad and just like them - for no particular reason other than they are big and goofy.

I even found a brown, proper-sized coin near what had been a canal in the 1840's and thought "finally", but when I got home and cleaned it up it was a Kennedy Half that had been toned by chemicals in the soil.

Someday . . .



And a 1¢ bucket list is a pretty low bar.

a tree coin - ive been with guys who found them near me and hunt many fields that they have been found in
- Id say ive hunted at least 8 fields where they have been found - and I get reales and cobs and half dimes
they have missed but have not gotten even a piece of one - closest I came was hunting with a friend -
was getting half dimes and other smalls in one area - friend was on the other side the field getting nothing
- I waved him over and told him to hunt near me - 5 mins later he gets a bent up 3 pence right where I told him
to go

I’ve only been doing this for 8 months so my list is so long I can’t even prioritize it yet. Large cent would be near the top though. Me and a buddy have talked about taking a weekend trip to try and find one.

After the Ark of the Covenant my top bucket lister would be a 20 dollar gold coin.

Well, at least you can hold the 20 dollar Gold coin. Don't try touching the Ark of the Covenant unless you are worthy!

Well based on the title, I would love to find the skull with antlers intact of the World Record Buck I hunted in West Virginia. He died apparently of natural causes as a sixteen point with an approximate 36 inch inside spread and was never recorded because he was never harvested by a hunter. What used to be a friend of mine in West Virginia, had pics of the Buck when he was a fourteen point and he was a World Record Buck then.

Other than that, I guess my Buck-et List item would be to find a fully shootable Civil War Cannon.
