Living in Petersburg, you should have pleanty of wonderful sites. I had a nice farm in Petersburg until last year when someone bought the land and kicked me and my buddy off of it so we would not find something and shut him down from building houses. Bummer, because I pulled 2 box plates, 2 New York Buttons, NC Button, over 75 bullets, and some flat buttons out of there. It was closer also from Suffolk to Petersburg than to Richmond. Maybe we can share some sites someday? Did I read correct that your friend got killed by someone because he was protecting a relic hunting site? Thanks!

PS

Besides the few pictures you have posted do you have anymore Civil War stuff? This is just a few things I got the last 5 weeks or so.

Looks like some good stuff! The lead is of course nice. I also see percussion caps, half a cufflink, a rein guide (or "terret"), a harmonica reed plate, some pack studs, a knapsack hook, a nice ball button, a brass escutcheon, a parasol clip, and several pieces of oil lanterns.


Nice work!

Thanks for looking and IDing some of my finds. I was having trouble with the oil lantern pieces till a few days ago when I found some in my relic book. I need to fix my picture. Thanks again!
