WOW what a beautiful day and a good day to MD. Found my first breast plate and the back piece of a cartage box look at the close up looks like the letter A has been inscribed. Also a gun tool and a piece of a confederate snake belt my 2 like this I wish I could find the snake end and a few bullets

Have a good day everyone !!!

Those are SOLID finds!

I agree that the lead pieces look like a box plate without the brass "skin."


Keep it up!

Thanks everyone ! I for got to tell everyone the box plate backing was 5 feet from the breast plate maybe they are a matching set I will go back and try to find the skin.

Chopper it was about 9 inches deep in soft soil I don't look to much at the VID If it is a high beep I dig no matter what. I have had the MTX for 6 months now I have learned the sounds through alot of digging hahahha I go on gut feeling to dig or not to dig on mixed tones maybe not the best way but it has been working for me.
