Way to go guys, I've been anxiously awaiting this post to see how much you had piled up in the last year. Again, thanks for the help, and hope you have twice as much to show this time next year.
I've been itching to go, but it's been so cold you'd need a backhoe if you got a decent signal........

If we get twice as much next year, somebody else is doing the year end post.

Keep in touch, redlined. I'll help in any way I can.

Best Wishes For 2009

Wow. I can't believe how much digging we did as a team, and I was only witness to 3-4 hunts. What an awesome year, and I think this year is going to be even better!!!

When you see just the keepers it makes you wonder how many holes were dug total! Quite pile BB, and a good post to wrap up 2008.

There were many outstanding items in that group. The coat of Kentucky staff buttons, the Miller crock, nice Federal accoutrement plates, the coin medallion, and some killer horse tack.

The Harrison button is also beautiful, and anything associated with the career of Abraham Lincoln is especially noteworthy.

You have made me jealous, and that is the mark of quality!

Well...some of your fine relics from this past have turned me green as well.


Best Wishes for 2009, plehbah

Good job guys, love the wide array of date items you guys really covered most major points in american history hope 2009 is twice as productive!!!

Fantastic year-end presentation of the Iron Brigade's finds, Buckles!!

Your passion for detecting and knowledge of 19th century relics is a major asset to everyone on Tnet. I appreciate the time you spend taking good looking pics, cleaning, identifying, and discussing your finds on the forum, each post having something very good to share. You're one of the leading guys on the forum that I can learn more about 19th century relics that I will never find in my locale. Hey, we expect nothing less from a master iron-patch hunter as yourself.

Keep the great finds coming, buddy! Hope '09 will be another great year for you and the Brigade!!

Cheers!!

Quite a lot of holes. This was a good year. I wish we'd been a little heavier on the older coins, but the relics have more than made up for it.


Thanks for your reply, my friend. It means a lot.
