Confedrate rossete on day 3 of Relic Rescue.

[JDug]

I worked the Confederate camp side all day. I don't know wether to say I rescued this rosette or put it out of its misery. It's in really rough shape but I'm more then happy to take care of it from here on out.

Goes to show how quickly this stuff is rotting in the ground. I say rescued and on life support.

Good finds that was a tough dig for sure!

Hope you don't mind my asking, and not trying to diminish it it any way, but how were you able to determine that it is a Confederate rosette?

Lots of nice finds there!

That's what David said it was. He ran the group hunt. He said he saw a whole one come out of the Beuareguard farm across the street.

So I looked up the other one from DIV and the C looks different. It has a deeper curve.


Not sure now...

Nice finds. I attended the first Relic Rescue hunt last year. That Confederate campsite was loaded with buttons then. Found my Script "I" with C S on it. Very rare. Congrats on a great hunt. I am leaving for DIV Thursday and hoping for another great hunt.

Nice hunt there JD, your still on a roll. Keep it going.

Judging by the location of the eye on the back there could of been a S on this as well. The C on this button looks close to what I have.

The front field for DIV is looking good. I heard this is the 1st time it's been plowed in 20 years...

That's what I was sorta wondering, but didn't have a good feel for the size of it. Anyhow .. it's Confederate and a nice find!

This could be the poster child for why relics need to come out of the ground.

Very Nice. Would love for them to drop a plow around here. Now you can have some fun. HH
