I went relic hunting with my friend Richard from Backyard detectors in east TN. I was trying out my M6 I had bought from him last year. Only a few minutes into hunt I found a Burnside cartridge. About 1 hour into the hunt I got good signal on the M6. I dug a plug and set it aside and scanned again and got another good signal from the hole. I removed the loose dirt from the hole and set it down on the ground. On top of the dirt wa a nice Confederat block I button solid one piece with the shank intact. I did the happy dance and ran over to show Richard. I also found one melted bullet.

Good stuff. I relic hunt for Civil War items sometimes. Lately have been coin hunting. Nice button ..and its
complete which makes it a good find. (Most of mine have been bent or destroyed by tractors) Keep up the good work!
