Civil war finds

mfjohnson · Jan 8, 2008

Hey fellow hunters,

I was able to get out for a little while this morning, back to a new site that's been pretty good. Below are a couple pics of the finds. I always enjoy finding those canister balls. I can't imagine the destruction those things could do to a human body. Also, what to yall think about that clay pipe? Most that I've seen from the CW period have that bleached white look. This thing looks like it has a base color of red.

Thanks,

Mike

Nice finds! I found a pipe once, but it was way more modern, like last year.

Nice digs. The last pipe I dug was in a school yard and still had some weed in the bowl.

Great finds I love the civil war relics.
I am dying to get my first mini ball or anything else civil war.
I have a question, the three little guys in the top right corner.
I have dug a ton of those what exactly are they?
I have a few still laying around.
