    • Slave Trade Bracelet

      A good friend that I go relic hunting with, found this bracelet at a Civil War Show in Vicksburg Mississippi. It came out of a gentleman’s collection who has had it for almost 50 years. This one is solid copper and weighs over 4 lbs. The biggest slave trade bracelet we have ever seen. What a great addition to my collection.

    • Dug Wedding Ring

      This wedding ring was dug in the town of Centreville VA. It is located in the top North-East corner of Virginia, only about 20 miles from Washington DC. Centreville stayed heavily fortified by the Confederacy using it as a supply depot during the war.

    • Dug Celtic Cross

      This beautiful silver Celtic Cross was dug in the Nashville TN. area. It has no marks on the back of it for me to be able to put a date on it. I had no idea it was silver until I took it to the jewelry store to get it cleaned and checked. What a beautiful find.

    • Dug Wedding Ring

      This brass wedding ring was dug by a friend of mine years ago close to the Chickamauga Ga. battlefield. What an awesome find. So glad to have been able to get this for my collection.

    • Dug Wedding Ring

      This wedding ring was dug in St. Marks Florida. The port at St. Marks was used a lot by Confederate blockade runner ships. They would ship cotton and other goods out to get supplies for the Confederate Army.

    • Dug Ring

      Although this is not a Civil War era ring, the history behind it is amazing. This ring was dug on the banks of the Volga River in Russia. Along with finding this ring, a lot of 11th Century Viking relics were recovered around the same location. It is made of bronze. What a great piece of history to find. I say it a lot, but boy, the stories this ring could tell.

      These two wedding rings were dug on a farm next to the Manassas Battlefield in Virginia. Always on private land, with the owners permission.

      All of these rings were dug in various camps sights throughout the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. I got these from a collector and fellow “digger” in Pennsylvania.

    • Gettysburg Wedding Ring

      It took awhile, but I finally was able to find a dug wedding ring from Gettysburg. I got this one from a collector in Pennsylvania who was parting out with his Civil War collection. He said he dug this one back in the late 60’s.
