Monocacy battlefield/No metal detectors/ would be nice tho!!

[jraven]

I've been slacking in the metal detecting department as of late (haven't been out in a week or so). I did get a chance to gander the Monocacy National Battle field, with my mom and kids and with out the MD of course. What a beatiful place, just think of all the relics in these fields and surroundeing areas. Enjoy the pics!

Nice pix. I visited the battlefield a few years ago and really enjoyed it. My great-great grandfather fought there as a private in the 138th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry.

Years ago I had the chance to detect along the retreat lines of the battlefield. It was on private property!! I dug a bunch of carbine bullets and 3 ringers but the best thing was a B&O Railroad lock that had been hit with something until it was broken open!! This site had been hit hard for a few years so I was pretty surprise to have gotten that!!
