A good day with a standout find! CSA SADDLE SHIELD

[kyphote]

Joined three friends today at a farm in Central Virginia. The saddle shield was the very first thing we dug and the bus was the very last. My friends were divided as to whether the bus is Civil War era. Two of them swear they saw it in Crouch's book. Great hunt and perfect weather!!

BANNER BANNER BANNER-I will never live long enough to find one of those in that condition. Next to a CSA plate or Very Rare CS button, that's the Holy Grail of CSA Relic Hunting. Banner Please.

One of my friends told me this saddle shield was found in Goochland and I joined TN just to check it out. All I can say is WOW! Looking at the condition, this isn't your ordinary discovery. I'd love to vote "banner" but how do I do that? Any help is appreciated.
