Hey Bud, dang nice snag Got to love the Civil War era "Fatties". It is in pretty good condition too and the date just pops right out at you and is so easy to read!!! Looks like you and Ty are going to be finding some very cool relics on that property I CAN FEEL IT! Good digs Joe, can't wait to see what else comes out of the dirt from that property
