2 Civil War plates in 2 days! Back to back. DIV !

[DirtyMike]

The first I found a half an hour into the hunt. The second I found on day two in a fire pit. These finds are from Friday, Saturday, & Sunday. I used an MXT the first day & a TDI the second & third day. There is a enfield nose cap & a confederate lead finial. Some eagle and Zouave buttons. There is a half cent, an indian head, flying eagle, & a realle (172?). A gun tool. And a bunch of lead.

Look into the DIV hunts. (Digging in Virginia) They are twice a year normally and you will be impressed with the finds for sure.

I am attributing your success to your choice of beverage. Dr. Pepper: the soda of Champions. I have never made so many good finds until I started drinking Dr. Pepper. It is the soft drink that has changed my life.

WTG Mike-DIV was good for you. The pulse induction machines like the T.D.I. and Infinium are the only way to go out there due to the hot soil. That hut, latrine, and firepit digging is a lot like work-LOL Great recoveries Mike. HH, Quindy.
