Several years ago I was detecting by an old rock bridge that crossed a creek. Its a beautiful stone arch bridge made in the mid 1800s. I got a signal with my Eagle II and dug up what I thought was some kind of broach.It was shaped like a bugle. When I got home I placed it in my junk treasure box. Fast forward a few years and Im watching a John Wayne movie and he has that same bugle on his union hat. I retrieved it from my junk looked it up on the internet and sure enough a beautiful hat pin, fully intact. I sold it a year ago. I only have this one photo. I scanned it with some ww II era buttons Ive found. Its funny , I had this treasure and didnt even know it.
