    Another couple hours at the old acadian

    Went there for a couple of hours working the iron and found another 1911 "V" nickel and as I was leaving I got a good target signal. When a silver colored button came out of the ground covered in hard dirt I didn't think much of it. Thought it was fairly new being silver colored and in that...

    All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! at the old acaidian:detecting:

    Again WOW!!!! The 1820's acaidian is now producing some gems. All the easy stuff is pretty much recovered and now I'm in thick with the square nails and lawn mowered beer cans. The flat button pictured was found within 5 feet of the battle of New Orleans Navy button. I'm concerned about...

    Great few days @ the 1820's Acadian in St. Tammany

    That old place is still giving up treasures. I finally dug up a pre civil war military button (battle for New Orleans era I believe). I think it's in great shape. It shows 16 6 pointed stars circling an eagle and anchor. The back reads Double Gilt with 2 6 pointed stars. I attempted to look up...

    Back to the 1820's Acadian

    Went back to the old acadian and found some more neat things. The photos show a pin fire cartridge that has writing on it (a "B" and at the bottom a faded out "16") and I guess the inards are intact. Then there's the Rabbit Foot button and several round musket balls. What amazed me was that the...

    A few more neat finds

    Went back to the 1820's acadian and found some more neat finds right where I've already detected several times. The pics show a 1917 Buffalo, 2/3rds of a Pelican State Button with no markings on the reverse (Maybe an LA-4), What I think is a CW era pistol bullet (The base of the bullet is flat)...

    Jan. 24th finds

    1st time out for 2010 in St. Tammany Parish. Hunted an 1820's raised French acadian for the 20+ time. I go over the same area and find something neat everytime. I believe the 1/2 token reads GREENBUCK CO. Unknown design on the obv. and what looks like a ship on the rev. It's made out of lead or...
