Meet up with DHD , we decided this weekend lets venture to a new county . We arrived at the Civil War rich area about 10 am . Our first site we aimed for was a good site , but DHD got no answer. While the radio was only picking up christian music we noticed a church across the street person in the parking lot so DHD got us permission to hit it . After about 45 minutes and only one bullet between the two of us I found half and DHD found the other half "ha ha". We noticed the owner across the street at the good site came home. So we cruized right over and struck up conversation , so when we asked for permission he said well im sorry but I have to say NO so he began to explain that he had caught a guy from P.A tresspassing on his land one night who left holes everywhere and even then the old guy allowed a few other people to detect who ended up doing the same thing leaving holes openned and making a mess. So off we went to the next site I hit the door and of course the owners husband is into metal detecting , next place no answer, and finally I hit pay dirt with a peice of land where the corner of a Union Camp was . And the old gent said sure go ahead as we started me and DHD noticed holes everywhere, so we informed the owner so we didnt get blamed and decided to take some time and do right by the owner and our hobby and we cleaned up holes and filled them back in properly . Apparently someone had trespassed on his land at night as well. So once we got to swinging DHD was scoring bullets left and right while I was hitting penny's at the same rate. And after scoring a nice little MUSKET BALL I moved to the front yard after about 10 minutes I scored a sweet NEW YORK EXCELSIOR OFFICERS BUTTON in perfect shape . DHD worked his way up front and scored a .57 CAL and then I scored a pushed EAGLE A button and a .57 cal .So I worked my way around back to give DHD a shot at the front and within about 45 minutes here he came with a big ole grin on his face holding not one but two Nice EAGLE buttons in his hand . So we both headed back to the front and I scored a nice dropped sharps bullet and then a blown out bullet and then DHD scored another EAGLE button . So he finally made it to the C.W button realm with those three being his first buttons ! So after a few more bullets and some peices of copper, im not certain but possible scabbard tips we decided to call it a day . So congradulations DHD on his first C.W buttons ! And thanks for looking !
