While searching a new permission that is very close to the area I found a KMA Cartridge Box Plate, I found what appeared to be a virgin camp site. After pulling camp lead, I started finding ball and buck that had been cast. I found a dropped 3 ring and then this beauty. A small letter or Virginia Style CSA buckle. I had to sit there and just take it in for a minute. My brother knew I found something good because I kept telling him to get over here. It got dark on us and it is pouring rain today, but we will be back for sure.

I do not know to much about these but I have seen one on the banner and when I looked it up, I could not find Amy real ones being sold, so I am going to gusse this I very rare and am going to vote banner on this! Also, I think it would look great up there!

Look at you! First the KMA and now the CSA :notworthy: I would vote Banner, but you just got a Banner and I don't believe you can have more than one at the same time.

That KMA plate you posted was outstanding, and now this!? Fantastic score, those old war camps truly do produce and create some of the most thrilling hunts! Another amazing score, good work!
