I have that Gettysburg medal, I got while I was in the scouts. If you do all the trails and look at all the stuff you get one. There is a patch program too. Churches are often where scout meetings are taken place. And they do community projects there too.

 

[hollowpointred]

no kidding maggot?! about how old would you say they are? or are they even still giving them out?

I was probally 13 or so and I was born in 1973, so I got it in 1986. I am sure they probally still give them out, probally thousands of scouts go to gettysburg each year. I remember we camped right off of where Picketts charge and we were playing capture the flag in a field and we found a bunch of bullets right on top. I sure wish I had my metal detector then.

Great job on your first quarter, and the rest of your finds, HH Art...

WOW!! Excellent finds!! If the bike bell part you mentioned is the dome piece. You might want to double check it. It could be a bell from an old telephone. The type where you talked into a horn and the other piece at your ear. I've found them in the past. WTG!! HH

 

[hollowpointred]

it is the dome piece actually! or at least half of it. i dont think its part of a phone though. it has an american flag on it,kind of like what you might see on a bike bell from the 40s.unless of course they used to decorate phone bells?
