Hello All,
Went detecting with my wife, Diggergirl and got out to a spot I've had some decent luck with before. She found a silver spoon handle piece, 1907 Indian Head, strange small bullet, and lots of keyhole covers from smokehouse locks. I got 2 .69 cal round balls, porcelain marble, some whatzits and a perfect Civil War Confederate Louisiana cuff button. when I first dug it, I thought it was a jeans button, but as soon as I rubbed it I knew what I had. The one of these I found earlier in the year was not in good shape. Here are a couple of pix from the field. Sorry there's no video. I ran out of steam.
I did am wondering what this bullet is that she dug. Any help is greatly appreciated. Have not seen one of these before. Is this a CW bullet of some sort?
I'm wondering if this is a pewter canteen spout. Any ideas?
Her crusty IH cent and tiny silver spoon piece:
And my Louisiana Cuff Button and a group shot of our finds. Was SO pleased to dig this button!
Best Wishes,
Buck and DiggerGirl
