My finds from the DIV XVII hunt

[Steve in PA]

This was the first hunt where I used my TDI exclusively. I might have had 5 hours on the machine going into this hunt, but I feel I made some progress with it during DIV XVII. I worked hard for what I got between all the walking and all the small iron I dug. I didn't find anything I haven't found before this time, but at a DIV hunt, there is always the chance of digging an incredible relic.

In addition to the relics pictured below, I found 4 shell frags which I gave to a buddy of mine who didn't find much. I would like to have sampled a couple other areas of the Beauregard Farm, but just couldn't get to all the hotspots due to lack of time and excessive walking.

Here are my finds minus the four shell frags. I am always happy to dig ringtails and Gardners.

Nice array of relics there! WTG!

Congrats Steve on all your finds. Most DIV's kick your butt because of the HOT, HOT soil conditions, but when you find a neat relic all that stuff goes away.

I have to say, I have enough nails to build a small house. LOL I really think someone flew over Civil War winter camps and tossed out Square nails all over the place

Hope to see you at a future DIV HUNT,
