That's getting it done right there. Know you need too find the rest of the buckle. Glad too see you feeling better!

It'd be hard not to feel up to hunting a place that produces a pouch full of goodies like those.
That's a dream hunt for most of us. Great job!
 

Just what the doctor ordered. I remember hunts like that when I lived up there!
 

Love it Brother.they should help make you feel better, I feel good for you with that haul!
 

Well yeah, you got after it alright Digger. Congrat' to you on some Saved WONA (War of Northern Aggression) bullets. All very nice. I love those star base bullets as well as the buckle piece. Glad you are feeling better. Those finds had to make you feel better still.
 

Son you killed it!!!! You better check and see if you got lead poisoning from all that lead. Congratulations

Thanks buddy. I've often thought about lead poisoning. I keep all my bullets in cases or in cans with covers on them. I've never been tested for heavy metals. Who knows. Lol
 

Congrats on an awesome hunt!
 

Nice finds, Congrats!!!

What kind of buckle is that?

What kind of buckle is that?

I thought it was a couple knapsack hook's tangled together at first look.
It 's actually the Brass hook's or piece that would have been embedded in the Solider / lead back-side of a Oval Belt Buckle ,(most likely a US one , from that site ) but It could have been off a confederate buckle 'If they had Brass Hooks'

I'm assuming the hooks are Brass. ???
 

I finally felt good enough to get after it. I did today.

Way to go !

That's a good amount of drops for these days , the Star Base are Sweet & Am I correct in thinking the US Marked cavity is a High $ Bullet ? I know you don't sell & that's Cool IMO.
I do wonder how the Face of that buckle is looking these days ?
I hope you can find it to let us know.

Thanks for the pictures they make me happy.
