Nice find! Didn't know the grenadiers still had their own division in 1870!
Congratulations!
 
Oh, that would explain it :lol:
Sorry, didn't notice you were from France. No wonder I couldn't remember reading about grenadiers in the Civil War battles...
 
Terrific find ! I've scratched a few nice silver coins with my screwdriver too , so I know the feeling...but if you treat every target like a fragile egg , you spend so much time on the endless junk that you may not even get to the good items in order to scratch them . Roadrunner_426
