I'm the LUCKIEST guy alive!

Well Gentlemen, I have done it again. This makes my second Confederate Plate in 2 1/2 years. I don't have my C.S.A. Rectangle anymore, but this CS Plate should more than make up for it.

My friend Brian and I went to a location that has produced some quality relics in the past and we wanted to pound an area that I had recently found a Cast I button in.

He was able to find a nice Eagle Cuff and about an hour after that I pulled this beauty!

After I pulled it from the ground and saw what it was, I yelled and screamed! Brian looked over at me like I was crazy.

Of course, I caught it on video! The next episode will be out shortly!

Nice plate. Congratulations. It looks like it may be the "Rope Border" style? Hard to tell right now.

Banner Find!!! I'd've done a cheetah flip If I'd dug that one.

P.S. You put out some good videos too. I've seen 'em on youtube.

Thanks for sharing

Re: I'm the LUCKIEST guy alive!

That is a cool find, I don't think a lot of us know how much one of those is really worth. So how much is one of those really worth? If someone could give me a rundown of the different plates and values ? A standard US Belt plate is $100-300 right and a CS Belt plate is how much??

Awesome find and video wish we could have watched you dig it. WTG :thumbsup:

Keep @ it and HH!!

This plate would probably average somewhere between $2,000 - $3,000. Anything Confederate is rare for the most part.

I wish we would have filmed me digging it. Everything happened so fast that I started the camera after I got it out of the hole. So, I got it going as soon as I could, lol!
