Whites 4900D, Whites 5900D, Whites 6000Di, Whites Eagle II SL, Minelab Exterra 305, Garrett Ace 350
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
I am teaching my kid about Metal Detecting and showing him how history can be unearthed. I have started putting together a collection of old US coins, and soon to be civil war artifacts like mini balls, mini shots and all else I can located. I do not live in an area that any these wars occurred so I have no access to digging some up myself.

I am looking for whatever is available that of course doesnt break the bank cause we are just starting out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am going to put them in a glass case and display them. I would love to get something that is related to the battlefield where it was located. Please no reproductions :)

I don't find many CW items and generally it is only onesies on the bullets. I gave most of my CW items to the historical society, but if I get a few built up I will consider sending them to you.
