I went on my first MD hunt this morning with Silver Worm. We found our own handful tabs and trash of course. Silver Worm dug several dollars worth of coins with his AT Pro. I found a 1989 Lincoln and this .54 caliber Confederate Gardner bullet about 4"-6" deep with my Ace 250.

Wow that's a pretty sweet bullet for a first hunt!
 

Thanks! Especially since there wasn't any fighting near us. However, the town had their own rifle company and I suspect it was fired during training. Several Confederate soldiers lie in the cemetery just about 100 yards from where I dug it in the park.
 

That's pretty cool sadly I live in a state that had barely anything to do with the cw wish I could find old bullets
