Bayonet Scabbard-Return to Civil War Fort near Shelbyville TN

[Mike N Tn.]

Finally got a day at 89 degrees and returned to a Civil War Fort in a neighborhood near Shelbyville. Everything I dug was in a small strip outside dog fence.
I don’t dig anything fantastic, but I’ll keep hitting it a while longer. Site is a Fort used by both sides during Civil War.
Item with two holes says Armes Coldcream Rouge. It’s a 1920 compaq. Big item is camp lead.
Thanks for looking.

It is a great thing to be able to recover such history within an already developed site like it sounds like you are in. History that no archeologist at this point would ever pursue to find, yet you are. Good on you.

Your finds are outstanding and to think that they once belonged to the soldiers.
Is it possible to return …..
Wishing you the best of luck and thank you again for sharing this with us.

I’ll keep detecting it. Spent three hours n one section digging out lots of roof tacks, which can ring high on Equinox 600 all metal.
