Finally, A CS Buckle!

[Fullstock]

I’ve been relic hunting for over 40 years and found many Union plates, but my CS bucket list buckle has alway eluded me. Well not today! Plow struck, but golden to me....

Congrats on an excellent find. Plow struck or not, at least its still in good enough shape to display, and its yours ! If everything came out of the ground in mint condition, we would just go to the store and buy it rather than dig it, and that would not be fun !

Yes, you’re definitely right about that!

Well I’ve pounded the area where I found the CS tongue for the last 10 months, hoping to find the wreath. I give, it’s either under pavement, or it was found a long time ago, I officially call it quits....[emoji12]

I would definitely have it professionally restored.
It is a Holy Grail of buckles.
Congratulations

I know I’m late to the show here but cool find! You don’t see those around too often.

Yes, and from what I understand, this is an unusual variant at that.

That’s a sweet find. Big congratulations on a huge bucket lister. I guess it’s safe to say you dug the whole place up looking for the other half... right?

 

[Worm-Slicer]

At least you got the best half, that's what is most important. Almost impossible to find any these days, even part of one!

Yes, I hit it hard, I doubt if there’s a BB left in the ground. [emoji16]
