Other finds where I stumbled on the 1827 penny. Possibly a pre civil war camp. November 22, 2011 02:07AM |
Looks like a friend and I stumbled on a pre civil war camp. Not finding a lot except nails so far but what we have found seems promising. My first coin find was a 1827 large cent. His is a 1839 Brittish Shilling. His trench dagger is the most interesting find. From pictures it looks to be from 1750 - 1780. Picked up the lady with 4 nail holes in it. Not sure what she was. Also the lock and a bunch of unfired musket balls. Some still have the lead from where it was poured into the mold attached and all seem to be not cast right. Every time we go out we hit something new and have yet to put our machines on all metal. I have found a button but it is only a lead one with a bar in the middle. Hope to find something very definitive soon. The horseshoe still has 2 nails in it. These finds were all from the last 2 weeks. Please enjoy!!

I think it shows all of the picts but one. It does when I open it!! Here is one musket ball and the lady with 4 nail holes in it. I did find a lead button right next to the lady. Is it possible she came off a wood box with sewing stuff? LOL interesting.
