Metal Detecting Forum

I stumbled onto what I think was a Confederate campsire last thursday.I found bullets everywhere, 3 buttons, 3 indian head pennies, a slver thimble, a whole harmonica (rusty) but still held together with rivets, knapsack hook and a lot more stuff.Does anyone know the value of the buckle if I ever should want to part with it ? Thanks in advance on any info on the buckle...

Where's the other half?It would be hard to identify with just that half.Great find no less! DBULL

I went back the last three days and found a lot of bullets and everything else but not the other half of the buckle...

As a harp player.....got a pic of it/...is it an old one???? sounds like some nice finds are still to be found there..

Post it on the civil war forum maybe they can help, Hank, congrats

I have a plain tongue I found about a year ago. Been back to the same site three times but no luck finding the receiver like this one.

Best of luck!
Jeff

I went back today but no other half of belt buckle yet.This has to be a virgin campground cause you can't walk 3 steps without getting a hit...
