I found a Flock of Eagles!!

[kuger]

Well I finally get to cross an Eagle Button off my list of "To Digs".They arent that uncommon to dig but one has eluded me....until now!Well the first one I had to be practically led by the hand.My cousin called and said he had found one.I was talking to Ironman at the time and he stated he had found six in that general area,I didnt get excited until cousin called said he had dug another.....I told him to stop!He found another by the time I got there,but stepped aside I got a signal at the base of a bush and thrust my shovel down to uproot the bush when the button fell out!!!

he ended up digging several more there.I headed out and my next target was my very own!I later gave him back the one I dug at his spot as I think they should all stay together.We kind of all met back at a central sight after that and were all digging signals,Ironman had a honey hole of a spot,Cousin was doing his normal "One minute he is in front of me,next minute he is behind me",......he gets around we will say!Anyway it seemed like Eagles were every where!Ironman dug a couple,I dug four more,one "Infantry",and cousin found one two more,it was one those times we all dream about!Cousin ended up with some incredible finds as usual,including a "Colts Patent",bullet mold,a smashed powder flask.I couldnt complain either,I think we dug 15 Eagles that day!
My first day

Cousins first day!!

The second day pickins' were a little slimmer but just the history dripping area and awesome company were invaluable,Cousin did dig three more Eagle buttons!
My second Day!

Thanks to all!We did find two "I', buttons.Thanks immensly Ironman for the added pics and superior quality(my photo skills were lacking!)Ironman did find a Seated Dime,I completely forgot about but to me that was just the tip of the iceburg for his weekend finds!!!We need to change his name to something like "MusketMan",or something along those lines.......I say no more!!

So when do we get to see the musket?!!

 

[mamabear]

I would be hitting the libraries history section to see if you could id the unit etc. what an extraordinary find! to have the history to go along w/ the finds would be amazing. HH
