3 Ringer, Flat Button & A LOT of Heat!

mangum · Aug 31, 2014

Hello all! I got out yesterday with a couple of buddies to a Civil War site. Yes, it's been pounded but I did manage to get a 3 ringer, a flat button & random lead. It was a hot one & the ground was hard as a rock! One guy found a Gardner & the other got a goose egg. It was a tough hunt but fun to get out nonetheless. Thanks for looking & HH!

They feel better when I don't

As long as a I find one keeper & especially from an event you can date makes it better. I just love the history.

Pulling a beautiful button and 3 ringer from a pounded site is no small feat. Congratulations on saving those two pieces from an epic part of our Nations history.

Nice Finds
Does your 3 Ringer happen to have a Triangular Cavity?

I was out in the HUMIDITY & Heat yesterday at a pounded site and only managed a couple square nails , some foil, & a couple
9mm FMJ.

So you had a banner day IMO.

it does not have a triangular cavity, it's normal. We all have those goose egg days! If it was easy everyone would do it.
