Yes, I've got a pile of stuff from this hunt and a few over the summer I need to display. I've got stuff scattered everywhere!

It was. How'd you like to have been hit by one of those monsters?

.69's are rare 'For Me at-least Down Here. Cherish the few I have Dug, love the Gardner as well ' Something else I don't find many of & never a dropped one.

You sound like me , my relic cleaning is Not Caught up with my relic Finding.

Good Stuff

Thanks. At this particular site - lots of both .69's and dropped Gardners. The Gardner still has some gunpowder in it.
