Hut site produces eagle plate..

[HutSiteDigger]

Found a small civil war trash pit this afternoon in Stafford that produced my first eagle breast-plate of the year along with two bullets and a eagle button and a iron buckle.. Had to move a big cw barrel loop out of the way and got down about 2 feet and hit all the relics in the same pocket. Lot of broken glass and iron signals all within about 5 feet wide in the hole. Plan on digging the rest of it out this weekend - if anything else is still there... i may not have hit the main pocket yet in the trash pit so still lot of digging to do... The eagle plate is kinda bent down on the bottom, pretty typical damage for a hutsite or trash pit plate..

Meant to put in "trash pit produces eagle plate" not " hut site"

I like dreaming of Confederate plates but trust me any Union plate makes my day even if it is just a standard general service union breast-plate... Getting kinda sick of these eagle buttons though, i need a good state button soon : )

Keep at it.. you will find one or even something better... Gotta hit those civil war areas hard and slow and do research on the property you are about to hit and things will pop up.

I have to travel 4+ hours to CW sites haha. Those are for special occasions. There was no CW action in the my area. Although I did find a random three ringer in the woods the other day. That was a huge shock. Happy hunting and good luck!

Let me know Digger.. I got one or two Rifle pits to dig out in that spot you and your son dug those bullets and 2 eagle buttons (where we saw that big hole in the yards that we had to walk about 200 yards in the woods to get to) weather is turning to good digging. let me know.
