I think Ty might have made his way over to the plug when I went back to the truck ;D Never had one come out of the ground like this before :icon_scratch: wasn't even in the hole!! Funny thing is that we were hunting an old 1700's foundation where Ty had found(I think) an Irish Halfpenny before along with another earlier LC and Tombac's.It was still a pretty fun hunt even though we didn't come out with any coin's this time but there's alway's next time.Not much for today.....Part of a Crotal bell,suspender clip with some silver gilt,pewter handle piece's and an old axe and hatchet....Can anyone date the these?Alway's a fun day out....Thank's for looking and HH!!

Hey Cman, maybe a Confederate soldier wanted to use the button but wanted no sign of the eagle and cut it out!!! Confederates discarded breastplates and boxplates and kept the cartridge boxes and leather shoulfer straps during the war. Just a thought. Very nice finds!!!
 

That is another relic mystery, lol great finds Civil!
