It feels good when you dig some History. Dug up this Civil War button today. Canfield & Bro. Co Baltimore. Infantry Button 1840-1860. It was dug at a turn of the century house that I was at on Sat. It was the first target that I dug and it turned out to the best target of the day. I love this hobby. Also dug a few wheats and a compact.
