My hunting partner, Buck and I were off west of here about 30 miles and found an old homeplace that we obtained permission to hunt. We found several interesting artifacts that could date the area to the Civil War or a little earlier. One item was an Eagile I button.
The most interesting thing is this brass device. Our thoughts are that it is a fighting ring. Wear with the shield facing up it looks like an ordinary ring, spin it around with the horns pointing up and you have a one finger brass knuckle.
Anyone ever seen one of these? Haven't been able to locate anything like it in my CW artifact books or an on line search. Perhaps using the wrong search term and it doesn't come up.
