For Valentine's Day I found a really nice plate in Mississippi. It's been about ten years since I found a CS Plate & I think this makes about eleven total CS plates that I've found. I haven't looked on dry land in many years, and decided to get some hard exercise to get in shape for my gold dredging in Alaska this summer. Heath Jones and I walked and dug for three days before I got lucky. By the way, people always ask where something was found, so I took the photo on top of the book that I used for research of the site.
Bless Their Hearts.

Here's a fun video on Vimeo about the guys & the shop. Steve has also created a new YouTube channel to show some of his relics & adventures. Recent postings include his cast CS buckle and Confederate land mines & hand grenades. He's also posted a great video about preservation of iron relics.
