Breaking Artifacts 101 Battle of Seven Pines,VA

I think that you've got some good finds there. That one is broken isn't that bad, so don't be too harsh on yourself. The main thing is that you have both pieces and you hung on to them. I've seen one of those hook things before and I'm sure that it was said to be a sword hanger. Compared to other civil war detectorists, I think you're doing very nicely for yourself. Good hunting for your next search :D

I don't know what is worst, breaking it or losing it...me I have lost what I found...go figure...HH

Your Kepi buckle looks more like a small sash buckle. Looks period all the same... a few good finds for he efforts!
