3 LG Cents, 3 IHs, 4 silver, some bullets and a 2nd Corp Badge

[MonkeyBoy]

Hello All,

Good day at a new spot!! Started off digging 2 bullets and the clover looking thing right after getting there.. then had 3 large cents in the next 1/2 hour! spent a few more hours and dug another 3 Ihs, including a 1859 fatty.. 2 war nickels.. the silver dimes with some wheats in a little pocket spill.. and another V nickle.. so in about 3 hours or so of digging over two days.. total for the spot is:

3 large cents
1 Flying Eagle
4 IHs
2 V Nickles
5 silvers
A Gardner and a flatten 3 ringer..
a bunch of wheats?

I'm still waiting to verify that it is a 2nd Corp Badge.. but really looks like a lot of the ones I have been able to find via google... I just don't get my hopes up since I have found things before I thought were badges and turned out not to be... but it's hard not to think 2nd Corp as soon as you see anything that looks like a clover.. esp when they came through my area..

Sure looks like a 2nd corp badge to me. Super nice find!!! The rest of your finds are real nice but the corp badge takes the cake. They are one of the holy grails of relic hunting!
