Latest Resaca,Ga C.W. finds.

[johnreb1980]

Here are some of my latest finds from last weekend and yesterday. I thought I had me my first complete Spencer cartridge until it came out of the ground. I believe it was whole but broke when I was digging it out. Man it was muddy out there, and all the lead targets were deep as heck. Glad I put my Super 12 on before I left. The iron spike is listed in Crouch's Civil War Artifacts book on page 59. I believe it was probably used as a tent stake. Thanks for looking and Happy New Year.

VERY NICE FINDS JR!!! Those brass cartridges are very fragile. The only ones that we dig intact here are the French pinfire bullets in the copper case. WTG!!!
