Found this little jewel on a new property today. There was civil war activity in the area so maybe some soldier was wearing his dad’s old uniform when this was lost. I thought it was just another flat button and was pleasantly surprised to see the U.S after a little rubbing. Nothing else good for the day but this was worth the whole day of sweating and trudging up and down ravines. I stopped by a construction site this morning and secured a one day pass tomorrow to detect. It’s a shame cuz it’s a good prospect for civil war relics too but the construction fence is going up Monday he said. Hope I find something in the 4 hours I’ll be able to be there.
