Civil War Camp Hunt.. Awesome Day!

[umrgolf]

I started this yard exactly two weeks ago today. Last tuesday only produced a few bullets and I didn't stay long due to the cold weather. Today being the 3rd hunt was a different story








Today's take




This is my first kepi company letter It was in the same hole as the eagle button




looks similar to the one here being the thicker variety, also beginning to think the eagle button that was in the same hole is the same as the small button you see on the left side of this kepi







A couple melted bullets and some cut pieces





Also snagged another silver from the camp

Anywhere you go,you will find the loot! A virgin CW camp is a dream for many a hunter. I am liking them seated coins!! Hope to get one or two this year.

Thanks again for all the comments.. There are a couple properties nearby that I'll be seeking permission for.. To answer the questions about the adjacent properties, they are well-known and have been hunted for 30+ years. I imagine they made it to every spot but this gentleman's backyard. We'll just have to wait and find out
