That's really fucking cool! Go get it appraised or get it checked out by some civil war historian, that way you can find out everything about it. Personally I'd want to keep it as a trophy but it might be worth a lot if you need the cash.
@MsTadpole1 It was about 14 inches deep, almost a foot and a half, it rang out loud and clear though, I had no idea that the target was going to be THAT deep. It it was sitting sideways that deep and not flat, I probably would've just barely heard it, possibly I wouldn't have heard it at all.
Awesome job Lee. I can't wait to hit that spot with ya. Don't make me pull TWO plates out on ya like you did near my house LOL. See ya on the SPOT brutha!

She's a beaut. Always exciting to dig one and if you can't dig one yourself, to watch one being dug. Thanks.
