relic nut
Silver Member
Hey guys, this was a very tough hunt. The amount of melted lead, copper and aluminum that is here will blow your detector up. Not to mention the junk. This site will require a lot of work to get to the good stuff but, it's there. I was surprised that I never found a single coin or flat button but the mealt is everywhere as I suspected. Finds should get better as I clean the site.
Not complaining, I had a great day for a relic nut. My best find on the house site was part of a nickel plated derringer that is way cool and what I think is a cufflink. Got tired of digging mealt so I moved away from the house site to an old orchard about 100 yards away and found a fired pistol ball and my best find of the day. It's a Virginia souvenir badge that says, worlds exposition on it. It's in great shape. I haven't had time to research it yet so welcome any info. Let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.View attachment 1261123![uploadfromtaptalk1452979265886.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1452979265886.jpg](https://www.treasurenet.com/data/attachments/1168/1168072-59fa0accdb7e40864dbbe99346edc97f.jpg)
