Another day at the Antietam Field's....and a first(x2)
I wasn't even going to go out today,It's been a pretty hectic week with my Dad still hospitalized.He's doing better after the surgery though.Some of plowed field's I hit last week were already planted so I figured they all were.That wasn't the case....I was about to call it a day and noticed the front field was still being worked.Stopped in for the last hour of the day and pulled not one but two "pulled" minie's, a .58 and a .54.I found an Enfield,a .52 Sharp's,a dropped .58,a .31 pistol bullet,a .69 roundball,8 "buck's",a percussion cap and a flat button(14.8mm) with the backmark "london treble gilt".All in all a pretty good day considering 3/4's of the plowed field's were put to bed until next spring.Thank's for looking and HH!!
