Civil War Finds Today

[Poptopagain]

I got a break in the Maryland weather and hit the dirt today for some civil war relic hunting. After digging a sack full of iron (My guess 20 lbs) and emptying my pouch several times I came up with some good finds. On the keeper side of the pouch were three almost perfect dropped 3-ringers, a flat button, a union coat button, and a clip that I think belongs to a to a sabre belt. I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Let me know if you've come across any of these.

And one other thing that maybe the end of a pocket knife. (Not sure)

Happy Hunting!
