I've found Union and Confederate Beerdaloons before. 🤣

I admire your determination and not quitting digging in that hard dirt 👍😊

What an amazing opportunity and experience! Congrats on your finds and thank you for sharing all of the finds at the end. WOW!

The graphics & descriptions of the various finds are very well done; in fact, they're excellent!🇺🇸

Gin it was nice meeting you at DIV. Nice job on finding the 2 fuses, anyone would be happy finding those. That is tough soil to hunt but you proved with a little determination you can still make some great finds.

Thanks for sharing Lucky G

Man that was a lot of relics. Loved how you added your insignia to yours. Don't remember seeing any fuses except yours. Could tell you were excited. Good job

Very interesting dig. You would make a great archaeologist. I camped on a farmers field @Antietam Battlefield in 1960 with the Boy Scouts when I was 13 yro. From 100 years of plowing the field there were thousands of surface finds of Minie Bullets every step you took. I was named after Robert E. Lee, so you can imagine what a thrill it was to experience this.

I love Civil War history! Great video!!

Nice video Gin, awesome finds. Montana is officially down for the winter, 3 degrees this morning and things probably won’t thaw out until late February or early March.

Gin, that is a fuse that came out of a projectile of some kind. I found one similar to that one time and it is a Parrott shell fuse. The 2 little holes (One of them is bent out of shape on the one you found) is where two metal prongs on the fuse-removal tool goes into the holes to either remove fuse or screw it back into the projectile. The length of the fuse will give you an approximate idea of how thick the projectile is where the fuse goes in.

Not only are you going to find civil war relics but you will likely find the remains from both sides. How you deal with that is something you should think about. Every where you find relics is also hallowed ground.

Lucky Gin, We are the lucky ones. You look glowing in this video.

Just got back from metal detecting in England, nothing to write home about. But returning next year to a field that Oliver Cromwell was camped in.

Hard soil will dig up easily with a cordless, hammer drill with a chisel bit... You can holster this drill on your belt for easy carry... Blessings: James... 🌿🕊

Masterful day, Gin. Those are really rare finds ("fusees")....Gunners (cannons) set timed fuses to explode the "shell" overhead in the air for "maximum dispersion" of destructive fragments...to wound, mame, kill (neutralize) as many of the enemy as possible. FINDING intact fusees...is, well, exceedingly rare....and you got TWO on the same hunt day. Outstanding !!!
