| Excavated Iron Confederate Knapsack Hook |
|
| Here's a Confederate item you don't see too often ! It's the female
portion of an Issac & Campbell Knapsack hook, except this one is
made of iron . Exact same size as the brass ones, and recovered in
Confederate Camps just like the brass versions. This one is in good
shape, still retaining the iron tongue too. Iron has been cleaned and
preserved, and isn't going to flake away on you. A neat variant of
the Confederate Knapsack Hook, that will display great, and not
in every collection ! Recovered Mississippi.

looks pretty fragile. Three nice dug brass relics. Recovered in

| Pretty Little Gold Gilt Stamped Brass Sash Buckle |
|
| Here is neat little stamped brass, Sash Buckle, excavated in a
Confederate Camp in Georgia. Looks delicate like it might have
been for a lady's fancy belt. Good dug condition with a plumb
patina, and about 30-40% gold gilt remaining, that highlites the
Rose and vine pattern nicely. Lettering in center says, "Patent
Applied For." Bar on back is seperated at one end, but won't
affect display. My hunting buddy dug one nearly identical to this
at a camp here in Arkansas. Measures 1 & 5/8ths inches wide,
by 1 & 1/8th inches tall. Nice little campsite display item !
