Hunted today with Mark and we got a fairly early start. Made some good finds and the Bit Boss was a nice surprise. It looks to be a civilian type but I am not sure. It was dug in a Yankee camp that I have found some nice relics the last two years. I also got 3 Eagle buttons but the wierd thing was they all had square nails in the holes, after removing each nail the Eagle buttons would be found. A couple of these holes had melted lead and square nails everywhere. We really got a good workout today. Mark did a great job sniffing out some deep drops and got a nice Eagle button as well. Hope evryone has a super weekend! Tim

Beautiful Civil war finds. Good going.
 

Intresting relics you have there :D. Very nice eagle buttons.
 

Hey Tim, Looks like you had another Great day in the State of Missouri!!!

Fantastic, they must be having sign ups at you know where, cause I can't get on the
site this morning. Hope we both get selected.

I got out yesterday and my partner and I had a pretty good day, I'm getting ready to head
out again, so will post both days on here. So far I found a Barber dime, a Mercury, Rosy, IH,
wheats and some sort of token. My partner got a new Explorer and we have been trying it out.
I really like the way it hits on targets.

Well take care, hope to see you this fall.
