Congrats on the CW lead. I remember those days of craving some CW lead. I just loved the feeling that came with it that you were digging up history, and thinking about the CW soldiers that fired or dropped them. Those hot days were tough. Ticks, sweating like crazy, and heat rash. Ahhh the...

HOLY SMOKES Merf!!!! What a beauty. An employee of the mint must have dropped that one on their way home. Lol. Amazing condition and very old too. You never let us down. Congrats!!!

Here's the piece I found many years ago. It was on an old property that dated back to the late 1700's. It later became a dairy farm.

I found a very similar one years ago. I posted it on TN. It was ID'd as slag. I still have it in my display case. I was looking for my old post to hopefully send you the link, but it won't open. Neat find.

Holy smokes, great recoveries! I love that show buckle and 1812 button. Way to go!!!

That's great! From one Doug (Dug) to another, Happy Birthday. I see we are about the same age too. Dougasaurus

I've always been told if you have the larger of the two halves the bank will take it. Either way, the American dollar is certainly shrinking.

What a cool token and CW era too. Fantastic find!!! Great job.

Congrats on your CW Infantry button. It's a beauty. I still remember my first one too up against an old oak tree. Little did I know I was just scratching the surface at that property. Some nice relics you have there. Looking forward to seeing what else you find.

Terry, I have a Silver uMax if interested. Excellent condition. Very easy to use.

I need a "slow week" like that Merf. Nice digs. Congrats.

I read your post title and thought you meant TN as in Tennessee. Lol. Welcome, and I hope to see some of you great future finds.

Awesome variety of finds!!! Very cool. Congrats.

Sweet IH Merf. Can't wait to see what else you pull out of that spot.

Now that's an outstanding jaw dropper recovery!!!! Holy smokes!! Well deserved BANNER find.
