Holy smokes what a beauty! That could about give a man a heart attack. Digging a rare $3-4000. belt plate doesn't happen every day. I would be happy digging one of those even if it had no hooks left, but that one has all three. Thank you for sharing it with us and I am voting for banner on this one.

Congratulations!

Steve

Holy heart attack, batman! Yup, I've never voted for a banner before, but tonight's the night. I cannot even begin to imagine . . . Congrats on the very best of the best hopes of every civil war relic hunter. How deep, and what other stuff are you finding? I mean, LOTS? Or few and far between?
