Nothing else really. A bunch of trash. Going back soon. As for the duplicate post, I just saw that. I posted from my phone and for some reason that happened.
Never seen one of those posted here. Excellent find and I'd say pretty rare. Bet that was a screamer when you ran your coil over it. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks to Smokeythecat I found out my box plate is more rare than I thought. I reached out to several people with connections to dealers and appraisers of civil war artifacts. Everyone that has got back to me says that they have never seen one, much less seen one for sale. They are trying to gather more information on it. The Kentucky Military Academy was pre Civil War and changed to the Kentucky Military Institute prior to the war.
Of course the excitement made me go back again to the yard and search for anything else I could find. Nothing found but some melted lead, small brass fasteners, and a lot of trash because I dug every signal.
Nice one Elvis. They camped all around Chickamaga down there. Many yards can produce Civil war and off of 2-a is the old 6th Calvary dump.I hunt that area when I can.
