Crossed one off the Bucket List

[Nesdore]

Went back to a place today where I have found LCs and IHs in previous hunt so i decided to hit it again and Im glad I did.....

Started off really slow dug alot of deep Iron and junk in the first hour......then started finding some relics first was a old spoon kept swinging there is a lot of iron in this yard but with my new NEL coil it does a great job separating the good targets I got another choppy mid tone better sound then just iron so i dug it and when I flipped the plug over I seen the target in the bottom of the plug it was a 3 Ringer:yahoo::bananadance::happy:by far the best thing I dug today it saved the hunt there was also a square nail in the plug with it thank you NEL sharpshooter ;) as i was leaving I dug an old lock a first also gonna be going back here for sure thanks for looking everyone and good luck swinging - Ben

Picture perfect! No roots, rocks, item right there :)
Could that bullet be CW related? Nice going :cheesysmile:

Definitely civil war. Great save!!! :grin:

Yup. Those three ringers were out mid-late 1800s so fairly certain it was CW. I found one in my town, altho I am certain it wasn't used in the CW as no battles happened in the area. Well.. I did hear a mention of some CW cache legend in Franklin, but thats not a battle nor is it close to where I got the bullet. Nice to hear the sharpshooter is working good for ya.

Excellent find. I would love to find one someday.
:congrats:

Great three ringer! That looks civil war to me. Good job on recovering a nice piece of history!

Nice find on the bullet. Looks like a nice and clean open area to hunt.
