Gettysburg Hunt Today

[Beeps in my sleep]

I have a friend that was able to obtain permission for a Union Camp in Gettysburg that has never been detected before. I found my first ever Williams cleaner ( missing its base) and a beautiful Union Eagle Infantry button with its Gold Gilt and shank intact. In all we tallied between me and my two other buddies over 50 dropped 3 ringers, 4 musket balls, my button, broken tip of a bayonet, and some other goodies. We cleaned house! So glad to find a spot that has had no detectorists ever on the property. Here are the pics my friends. Enjoy and HH!

Great bunch of lead, Beeps! That button is really beautiful too. They don't come that perfect very often.

Very nice. Been quite some time since I have dug that many Civil war items at one time. Awesome saves!

Man o man! You are on the something special there! Can't wait to see when you pull the deep stuff. I think I'd play hooky for a month and head back again and again. Great job!

Nice button got any better photo's of it? Any info on the spoon? Sounds like a special place there's gotta be more to be found there. good Luck.
