couple days late posting this but i got out Friday morning for a short hunt, and the first couple hours were very slow, i came across nothing, after a short rest i started hunting a small high rise overlooking a swampy area, well i got a great sounding signal that was screamin at me so i knew the signal was fairly shallow, well i dig a plug and pop it out and staring back at me is big ol US that couldnt have been more than 3 inches below the surface, pulled it out and saw that it was a buckle with all hooks intact, but with one oddity there is a small iron buckle firmly attached to one of the hooks on the back, it makes me wonder if it could have been a CS field modification for a smaller belt, CS troops retreated through this area. Only other finds were a couple bullets and parts to a harmonica. Got home and proceeded to clean the buckle, all i did was toothpick the dirt and lightly brush with a soft bristle toothbrush and the buckle is amazing, nice light brown patina on this baby, im very happy with it, this made my month.
