Collect Those Relics!!!

The following pages contain photos of some relic hunting "expeditions" and a few interesting items from my collection.

A soldier-made 2nd corps badge, from Gettysburg; And a brass 6th corps badge, from Spotsylvania.
(Above, right) A broken piece of bone with a fired .58 cal. "3-ringer" in it.
