I enjoyed today immensely, I have been to busy to hunt very much lately. I dug the silver ring a foot or so from a dropped 3 ringer and a eagle cuff button was close to it as well. Enjoy the pics. Tsgman

Great collection of bullets.

No battlefield, but a camp area, It's possible a small skirmish may have occured there? I got started this morning around 10am and I was done by about 3:30pm. It was pretty warm, around 85 today and I got a lot of sun. It was a good workout.
 
Awesome finds bud!You did work hard to get em.Mid 80's yesterday with about 80% humidity.Way to go........rh
 
As alway's Tsgman,love the find's....Do you think the ring is CW related or not.Congrat's and HH!!

It was HOT wasn't it ? I can't believe how humid it got. I dirt fished for a short hunt. Just a couple of .69's, but I forgot the water so I wasn't out too long.
 
It's about time someone started posting some Civil War digs. Right now you guys are my only access to my favorite metal detecting digs. Keep it going, I love too see them.....HH.....Bill

Civil, I think it was from that period, it appears to be very worn. I read that it was popular in those days for the soldiers to wear a sweetheart ring on their little finger. This is the 3rd womans sized ring I have dug in these camps. So maybe that was a popular thing to do after all. Take care. Tim

[/quote] Your are so right, I think I drank 3 bottles of water, without it I would have been out of there pretty fast. Have a great week. Tim
