And I think I confirmed the 1850's Part of the Field.
I the same general area I Found the 1853 Seated Quarter in 2012,

I pulled out what I thought was a can Tab.

Turned out to be an 1859 Fattie

I was So Surprised I had to Drop it and Re swing over it.

Sure Enough, Spot on Can tabs.
so I ended up Pulling extra Can Tabs today :laughing7:

The Fields in the area were Used to train troops for the Civil war & Militia.
am hoping I found a camp Site.
