OK
We've seen your best finds of the year but, here's something different.
How about, you best UNIQUE and ODD finds of the year. 8)
I'll start.
We are still trying ID this one. After Rando looked closer he advised may a be a cut LIBERTY copperhead badge.
I do know that is was dug from a Civil War Camp In Asheville NC.

You need something for scale to get the true glory of this piece, take a picture in the hand!

How do you find Gold coins? Reply: 'By finding lots of Silver ones..'
A real man thinks about detecting every 6 seconds

OK!
Ok, see how you found it now. (bigger than a cartwheel)
It's going to be a long winter shaun
SS
It's ok, I like the abuse
Hmmm.... I am very concerned there might be an underlying issue here.
Shaun, did either of your parents also have a problem not being able to find a cartwheel penny? Did they beat you with their detector because of it? I think you might have to get some professional help for this.

I doubt I will ever again get something as delicate and ornate as this brass hair brush out of the ground in this good shape! I admit I was mudlarking but still !! MaineRelic.
I dug this really cool Indian head stickpin!
It was cut perfectly out of an Indian head penny from who knows when?
I do know that is was dug from a Civil War Camp In Asheville NC.
eeehhhhhh.....
You have something VERY special there..

42 CONFEDERATE AGENT
The great news filtered back into the cells at Columbus. Hines and the officers went wild with joy. There was other good news. The Copperheads had nominated Vallandigham for Governor and Ohio was at a fever pitch. There were more torchlight parades in Ohio and Indiana cities. It seemed almost every man on the street wore on his lapel a tiny copper Indian head carved from a penny.
Discipline was tightened at Columbus. Merion, the warden, threw one of Morgan's colonels into solitary confinement and later transferred him to Johnson's Island, where he died of diphtheria.
Ummmm, Can someone help verify this please?
