3 great confederate plates posted in 3 days! :headbang: Quite a day you had! :thumbsup:

who had 3 plates in 3 days? CSA plates?
 

really a sweet find man----congrats---I once found a 1830's era militia buckle but never a civil war plate--dang that's a good find----and folks say there's nowhere to hunt anymore---poot on that negativity!
 

Just as cool as the first time I read this post but what's the deal with all the old threads getting dug up lately ? Is it because it's too cold to get out and do any detecting ? When I click on TODAYS finds I don't expect to watch reruns...
 

Awesome find one of the most desired american history pieces right in your hand !! This year is starting to turn out good
