I'm the LUCKIEST guy alive!

Well Gentlemen, I have done it again. This makes my second Confederate Plate in 2 1/2 years. I don't have my C.S.A. Rectangle anymore, but this CS Plate should more than make up for it.

My friend Brian and I went to a location that has produced some quality relics in the past and we wanted to pound an area that I had recently found a Cast I button in.

He was able to find a nice Eagle Cuff and about an hour after that I pulled this beauty!

After I pulled it from the ground and saw what it was, I yelled and screamed! Brian looked over at me like I was crazy.

Of course, I caught it on video! The next episode will be out shortly!

Nice plate. Congratulations. It looks like it may be the "Rope Border" style? Hard to tell right now.

Re: I'm the LUCKIEST guy alive!

That is a cool find, I don't think a lot of us know how much one of those is really worth. So how much is one of those really worth? If someone could give me a rundown of the different plates and values ? A standard US Belt plate is $100-300 right and a CS Belt plate is how much??

Awesome find and video wish we could have watched you dig it. WTG :thumbsup:

Keep @ it and HH!!

This plate would probably average somewhere between $2,000 - $3,000. Anything Confederate is rare for the most part.

I wish we would have filmed me digging it. Everything happened so fast that I started the camera after I got it out of the hole. So, I got it going as soon as I could, lol!
