Cap Pouch!

[TNrelicdigger]

I was diggin in a Confederate site when I dug up an interesting relic, a lead final to a cap-pouch. The odd part was sure enough it still had alot of the leather on it! I was amazed! Me and a buddy of mine got another signal and decided to dig out a nice sized hole(hoping it was the plate.)We didnt find the plate but we found another treasure instead. We found a percussion cap...and then another...and then another! By the time we were done we had 49 out of the issued 50 caps! Unfortunatly, not all of them are with it. We had to keep the land owner happy, you know how that goes.

Great find! I done the exact same thing about 2 years ago. 49 out of 50 caps and the final. It was also in a confederate campsite. We also found a buried moonshine still but I don't think they were using that!!
