Here are some more metal detector finds from over the years. There is nothing of any value here, old military buttons, overall buttons, very old jewelry, etc. With the exception of one or two, all items were dug in the Corpus Christi, Brownsville, Texas area. Several of the military buttons were dug in the vicinity of the Civil War Battle of Brownsville, Texas, in 1863. Several of the other items were dug at the old ghost town site of St. Mary's, Texas, north of Corpus Christi.
You will see several of the items I have posted individually recently.
