    Found at a Civil War campsite (surgeon's tool?)

    I have found several bullets that appeared to be taken from flesh at this site in town. This town is near the battle of Shiloh and every house in town was commandeered by Grant to be used as a hospital during and after the Battle of Shiloh. It was covered in thick rust until it was placed in my...

    Found at a Union campsite beside a possible hospital

    I found several bullets at this site that appeared to be taken from flesh. It is in the town I live in and US Grant commandeered all houses to be used as hospitals during and after the Battle of Shiloh. This looks very close to being a surgeons tool from the research on the web that I have...

    I found this in a Civil War campsite.

    I placed a Harmonica reed next too it for help in determining it's size. When I first dug it, I though it was a rusty wratchet wrench, but after electrolysis, I saw the sharpened point and my thinking has changed. Besides, they wouldn't have had a wratchet wrench in a CW camp. I think those came...

    I found a lockplate and a grapeshot at my latest site.

    Can anyone tell me what rifle/musket this lockplate belongs on??? I sorta thought that it resembles an Enfield, but not exactly. If I remove the rust, will the lettering and numbering be removed as well.......or, is that y'alls experience when dealing with iron CW relics???? Thanks for any help...

And while I was hunting that yard, I guy across the road said: You are welcome to hunt my yard is ya want. I was running out of time...

    Silver dime from the depths

    Although I shouldn't have been too surprised, beings how the Deus (with small coil) hits well on the ten inch dime in my test garden, I got a good repeatable signal yesterday (12 khz) while sweeping an area. I didn't get a TDI with the signal but the signal was well defined and worth digging so...

    General Service Cuff button and another unidentifed relic

    Well, this morning I took the Deus on a two hour hunt. Found a cuff button that I can identify. But the other round item which has a "V" on it, I cannot identify. Or....considering the markings across the letter V......or Roma numeral five, whichever it is.......it could be the letter A. Can...

    XP Deus and American relics (Civil War)

    I have a three ringer buried at 7 inches, one at 8 inches, and one at 9 inches, and one at 10. I have a coat-sized Union Eagle I button buried at 7.5 inches. My Deus, which by the way I like better than any detector that I have had due to it's separation ability, hit's on the big 58 cal bullets...

    Found some silver.

    I had tweaked my #2 preset (GM Power) to 12 khz instead of 18. I also see what the Ground Balance will be when pumped, and then I set it manually 2 or 3 points below what it pumped to. Then I started hunting and hit a clear tone. Don't even remember what the TDI was because I have quit relying...

    More silver today with the Deus.

    Older silver!!! I accomplished a 'firsts' today with the XP Deus. Found a half dime. 1853 model. Wow! My oldest coin to date. My next oldest is a 1862 Indian Head (fattie) found at this same site on another day with another detector.

    XP Deus found a little silver today.

    I detected a couple of hours saturday and today with the Deus. Found the stuff in the pic over the last couple of days out of a site that I had thought I had hunted out. Two older Jefferson nickels (one in the 1940's and one a 1950 something) and a 1962 Rosie dime. How did I miss these over the...

    I need some help identifying this old button

    I got to do a little swinging before supper tonite and the result was an old spoon, a couple of chunks of lead, and this button. Can anyone identify from what era this button comes from?

    Look at what the Deus found me today:

    The best relic that I have found so far, and in an area that is literally clogged with old square nails in various stages of decay. This Eagle Martingale was probably on edge becuase it rang up at around 45 in Deus Fast program. To say that I am tickled with the relic AND the machine is an...

    How can I set my Deus for Two Tone

    I want the low tone for iron, and the hi tone for anything over iron. Is it possible. IF YES, then would someone please explain how. I have been trying but when I set my tone frequencies and breakpoints, it keeps running my DISC back up. I won't the DISC at ZERO so that I can hear stuff under...

    A few finds with my new T2SE

    Found this stuff over the last couple of days. On the button that looks like there is a lady with one arm raised, I wish someone would tell me what kind of button that is. Thanks for looking. Just another teknetics fan.

    At an old homesite that dates back to the mid 1800's. This bottle dump is huge. I haven't reached the real old stuff in there yet. Bit since I am brand new to bottle collectiong, I was wondering if I have anything worth collecting in this group of bottles that I dug today. I ran into alot of...
