Detector(s) used
A stick with a box at one end and a round thing on the other.
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
These are some of a few Civil War items I found on a past trip to TN 2 yrs ago at the end of March
(when I got tired of winter here in MI) and decided I needed a break from it! I spent 4 days/3 nights in a motel in Nashville. I found 2 large fields recently plowed and got permission to hunt on both!

Shown are a Large cent (barely decernable).

Some pimer caps/etc.

A 3 ring mini.

and an eagle button + part of a cuff button I believe.

After last nights snow storm here in MI dumping another 8 or 9 inches on us, I'm about ready to hit the rd and head south again for another detectin adventure!
