He said it was the wreath to an early militia buckle(federal eagle). It was in my trash from some farm field digging I did about a month ago and I can't even be sure which farm field it was. The reason I threw it in the trash is because it is so thin and when it was covered with dirt it just seemed like a thin piece of hardware. Last week when I knocked the dirt off I could see the leaves and thought: "This might be something". I'm glad I went through the trash instead of just dumping it!

That's a cool find Neal.
I always check my garbage pocket also and one time I had a merc dime in there and if I hadn't of looked it would have ended up in the garbage can. HH.

Im pretty darn careful about anything i dig taking it home and like Santa... checking it twice. There has been several times ive had some good stuff i almost threw away. Great find there Neal. Better take a something more than a shovel if you want to hunt a field now.... they are almost impossible to dig around here.
