More finds from the Observation Post. John and I were hoping to locate a large camp associated with this Observation Post, but we are still looking and have a lot of ground to cover yet. These type of outposts are usually for watching enemy movements and to protect the actual camps located nearby. The chances of finding another large camp are still good. Some of my finds, Knapsack hook, a pocket knife and several of the large caliber 69's. The coin is a wheat penny probably lost by the land owner. Some of the fired bullets I think could be from a skirmish due to the proximity to the main road. Until next time Tsgman.

Hey TSgman, how would you like to trade sites for about a week haha, I got a 1812 site that I hunt from time to time, my oldest coin I have ever found came from this site. It's a 1717 Munday Thursday coin. Also found a 2 bit piece here, and lots of musket balls and buttons. Would love to try my luck at Civil War relic hunting! Keep the pictures and finds coming, this nw Ohio guy loves all your finds and only wishes that someday he will find some of your goodites. HH, Ringfinder
 

Thanks for the pics. I especially like the ones of the actual dig. It gives me a lot better picture of what CW relics look like "in the ground". Keep up the good work . . . rather fun!!
