Gotta be enjoying that. Is this site in the woods or in a field? What kind of depth are most of these found at? Keep hunting!

Nice finds, congrats!
 

thanks, thats the 9th epaulette i've found at this site so far
 

Awesome finds :icon_thumright:
 

anyone have an approx date on the jamestown token that they know of, im guessin 60's, saw one on ebay that listed it as vintage token/medallion but no date given
 

I'm not even a Civil War guy and I'm jealous. Great epaulette. The token... yeah, maybe 50s or 60s. That's probably a safe bet, IMHO.
 

awesome digs..love the Jamestown piece and the butt plate.
 

Cool butt plate.
 

Great bunch of relics there. The buttplate is in great condition!
 

Wow those are awesome finds!!!
