These are my favorite 2011 finds. I broke my shoulder January 2011 and the 6 months of recovery severely restricted the first half of the year, however the summer produced a few nice finds. The period brass knuckles from a Cavalry privy were unexpected to say the least. Anyway, here are a few pics representing last years digging adventures. Thanks for looking.

Hey Evan, I remember when you found those Brass Knuckles and they are still as terrific to look at today as they were several months ago. Those are some quality relics and the Infantry Bugle Pin is First Rate, congrats buddy and hope to see you at this coming DIV. I must've missed you at the last one although I ran into Reid and ended up digging a hut out right next to him for a few hours on the afternoon of Day 2....he said that I had just missed you. Well, good luck in 2012 my friend :occasion14:

P.S. Nice looking truck :icon_thumleft: :wink:

Pretty sure its a drawer pull. Dug it in Virginia on the top of a hill (small skirmish site) the only other things found were fired 58 minies. Based on the location it should have been military, but all who viewed it thought furniture related.

Agreed, had quite a few over here.

The crossed swords is my fav looking item, held up well :icon_thumright:
 

Thanks for all the comments. I actually dug that whiskey on the 2nd so its been a good 2012 so far.
