With the "blown" fuse and it look's like a couple of the minie's have been fired I'd say something definetley went on at that site Randall.The field's I hunt around here I turn the disc. pretty much all the way down and if it's an iffy signal or give's me a good reading for a split second I'll dig it.....9x out of 10 it's a keeper.Moving around the target in a circle help's too for me.Look's like you're just starting to clean house at this place.....Best of Luck and Congrat's :thumbsup:
 

Nice finds. The item in top pic on far left, looks like a boat motor prop.
 

Oops..I mean second pic :-[
 

I didn't see anything that would make me declare it Confederate, but it is definitely civil war. Now where is the main part of it. Sometimes small spots can be picket posts. That would make you think a larger camp is nearby. But hunt every part of you can and like was mentioned earlier, go slow. I'll bet a button pops out before you are done. And if you need any help, my phone number is..............
 

The relic in the middle is horse tack related.
 

Very nice bullets! Keep up the relic search! I am sure you will find something good one of these days! :thumbsup:
 

You are definitely on to something there. Keep digging that stuff up.
 

Nice finds Randall :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Hope you find lots more there.
