A few finds from around Washburn Mo. During the war of Northern aggression it was called Keetsville, Mo. I want to thank James and Kelly for inviting us down to hunt with them. Talk about hospitality we even got breakfast! Thanks again fella's! I got out Sunday afternoon with Mark and hunted another yard in Springfield. I dug a 1853 Large Cent and a few bullets. I also dug another bird band , my second one. The weather here has been really cold so we just get in a chance here and there, Hope everyone had a great weekend. Tim

Look's like a fun outing there Tim.....A bullet at a new spot would suit me just fine.I'm not a J hook proffessional but the one's I've got turn to the left (facing),the one in the truck bed is turned to the right.Were they made facing left and right?Nice find's and Congrat's on the LC.Heading down to Va. to do some CW dig's tommorrow hopefully.Happy Holiday's to You and Your's :thumbsup:
 
Yea, we had a great time in the lower Ozarks!!! Those boys have a gold mine of relics down that way. Missouri is not like Virgina or any other place in the east where you can almost drop a loop anywhere and find goodies, alot of hard, hard research has to be done, just wish we had more Confererate camps and sites to work on. Yes, J hooks were made left & right. Again, I want to thank all involved in that hunt. I have made some GREAT friends over the last year, even if you don't find anything, the time spent with great friends is well worth the trip............MO
