Look closely at this picture, and you will get a glimpse of the " Arkansas Jackass " ! Really unusual thing about the photo, is that his image was captured, just as two " ponies " managed to creep up on his backside ! Another one of those strange occurences, often seen during an Arkansas Relic Hunt.

Nice .36 Caliber Manhattan Navy Revolver
Nice Civil War Production - Manhattan Navy Revolver
Nice Civil War Production - Manhattan Navy Revolver
Here is a real nice, fully functional, .36 Caliber Manhattan Navy Revolver  !  It's got a serial number that indicates production in early 1864, and a good smooth gray/brown patina on all the metal.  Wood grips are in great shape too, and the pistol displays very well. Click link at left to go to Firearms, and give it a look.  
Baby US Buckle - Recovered Fredericksburg - Now Sale Priced
Baby US Buckle - Recovered Fredericksburg, Virginia
Baby US Buckle - Recovered Fredericksburg, Virginia

These small "Baby" US Buckles are only rarely recovered. I've dug two of the Baby plates in 25 years, but both of them were boxplates. This Buckle has some roughness on the front, but no major breaks or cracks, and the letters US still show fine. The reverse shows most of the lead-fill intact, along with both hooks. Recovered at Fredericksburg, it displays nicely, and now has a Needs New Home Price !  Baby Buckle at left goes to Accoutrements where you can give it a going over !  


Nice 12-Pounder CS SideLoader - With Excellent Gettysburg Provenance
Excellent Gettysburg Recovered 12-Pounder CS Side Loader
Excellent Gettysburg Recovered 12-Pounder CS Side Loader
Even when I get relics from friends, I almost hate to say, "Dug at Gettysburg", as you see that so often falsely claimed. Got no qualms though about identifying this nice CS Side Loader as such ! Lots of solid provenance to accompany it, and I have no doubt whatsoever ! It's in pretty dog gone good shape too, with nice patina on the CS Fuze Adapter, and the plug. Give it a look folks, it's REAL.  Small Side Loader pic at left takes you to Artillery !
