Here's a pic of a silver SC I found recently

Our lowcountry's sandy soil kept it looking pretty good even after 150 yrs in the ground.

Of course it has been cleaned, it didn't quite look this nice right out the ground, in case enquiring minds need to know

Your finds are always amazing! No lie, last year I was defending your digs against a naysayer here on the forums, and the guy pm'ed me back and said "if his relics are dug, Im the Easter Bunny"... Good thing Halloween is right around the corner

Hey bud,

thanks , I don't understand why there's some on here that think I don't dig my relics? Hell I've been doing it down here for 25 yrs. I guess it must be the condition but as you know other than with the exeption of florida the lowcountry of South Carolina has the prettiest dug relics in the country. I dug a navy cuff the other week that looks nondug. You can tell from the back the shank is gone and a little crusty where the shank was but the front is 100 % gilted. The guy may as well get him an easter bunny costume and wear it with pride, cause this old boy be diggin all his relics

Lol im sayin that pm was laughable.. You see it regularly, people thinking relics that come out with different patinas and conditions than their soil allows must not be dug.. The facts are the facts. SC sand is nice to relics

So yes there is an Easter Bunny

yeah there is an easter bunny and here's that navy button I dug recently. If he doesnt believe in the easter bunny check out this video and he'll see it for himself. I have other videos and it shows the SC button right out the ground. I hate to burst anyones bubble but the SC lowcountry has some beautiful relics and what I post I dug ,thanks for taking up for me I appreciate it .

Re: Here's a pic of a silver SC I found recently

I can back up your finds as well Pete. I lived in Goose Creek for years and found relics in the same condition and my parents live up the road in Darlington-Florence and I dig out pristine relics fro up that way too...its just as sandy and nice up that way as down near Charleston, Secessionville and Battery Wagner. UMRGolf is my friend and old digging partner and He'll tell you even here in Eastern Virginia the soil is real sandy and many of the buttons come out in near perfect conditon as well...its the coastal plains where you find those good soils from down your way up to here in Virginia.

Anyway great digs and another terrific button my friend
