Minelab Equinox 800, XP Deus,
Primary Interest:
Relic Hunting
My buddy and I got out to do some detecting behind his house today in Virginia where he lives. We never would believe the stuff we pulled out today and believe this is a virgin camp: My finds:

1 My 2nd US belt buckle arrow hooks all intact
2 I dropped .36 round ball
3 1 fired .44
1 small flat button
1 military button: CADET W.M.S. Don't know which military institute could it be William and Mary School in Williamsburg? Backmark: Scoville MGCO. Superfine
1 NY Militia Kepi
1 floral design button
1 period ring

My buddy also dug today:

1 US Bit boss
4 Eagle I buttons with gilt
1 1859 IH cent
1 dropped .58
1 fired .69
1 small flat button


Stuff is out there diggers but you have to sweep slowly and dig all signals

To most people that wouldn't be a great day. That would be a great year! Awesome job and thanks much for the great pics.
 

outstanding relics!
 

Those are fantastic finds and that doesn't happen by accident! Great job at both putting yourself in a great location and taking the time to "dig em all" and get that good stuff out of the ground. Very impressive finds
 

That was a day relic hunters dream of and are getting few and far between. You will never forget that day. Keep that site close to the vest. WTG, Quindy.
 

Very nice finds.
That seems to be a good site.
 

Congrats on your great finds!
