Downtown finds/Civil War slide buckle

[Woodland Detectors]

I met up yesterday with my club brother and digging partner Guy (TNrelicman)
He is an train locomotive engineer and he came out our way yesterday.
I picked him up from the hotel the crew spent the night at and we set off for some downtown Asheville NC relic hunting.
We hit some of my permitted sites the yielded some CW artifacts in the past and misc. Other finds. When your digging any where near downtown there is no telling what you can come up with.
Sometimes it's a coin festival sometimes you get lucky and find something real historical. But all in all, it's just great getting out with friends and having a good time.
Here are some photos of yesterdays saves
If you notice at the top of the first pic there is a harmonica that has a lot of guts left in it.
I just realized I dug a Civil war slide buckle too. Thanks Pete! I still think it looks ww1ish
See, you never know!

Re: Downtown finds

The baby cleaned up pretty well. Any tips on cleaning dug babies?

hahaha! You hold them by the feet with one hand (much gentler that Michael Jackson's cradling technique) Turn em upside down and baptize them in a very diluted olive oil solution.
