Recent Civil War finds and a 1881 Morgan Silver Dollar! Tsgman

[tsgman]

I took my buddy Steve hunting a couple days ago and we were digging a few odds and ends in a area that had gave up a few goodies recently. Steve dug a couple of toe plates and one still had the small nails or tacs still in it. I dug one that had the largest holes I had ever seen in a toe plate? Anyway a few minutes later Steve yells out I dug a Silver Dollar! That was a thrill just being there to see it happen, he was pretty geeked up over it and I cannot blame him, lol. I dug a wedding band that looks pretty old, I dug one just like it at another camp last year. I think the brass wedding bands were popular with the CW boy's back in the day. Hope everyone digs some good relics this week, Tim

WOW, nice Morgan!
I still can't believe people could lose those things. They're huge.
A big coin not to nick with a digging tool.
Nice recovery!
Congrats!
