My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

A very small look at my Civil War collection. All bullets are fired .58 Cal. from the battle of Chancellorsville. The Eagle breastplate is from Manassas, as well as the green colored US Plate. The brown plate was found at Dulles Airport. The NC (North Carolina - Confederate) button is from Fort Fisher, and the rarest Item of all was found by myself: The button in the center with the letters CS in the eagles chest shield. To begin with, it is one of the rarest Confederate buttons ever made, but adding to that, It was found at a place that Confederate General JEB Stuart visited three times during the war with his staff officers. Perhaps either he, or his staff lost the piece. I still haven't cleaned the dirt off of it yet. I'll have to photograph some of my other stuff, like my musket, NCO sword, Gettysburg stuff, etc.

Part of my Indian artifacts collection. Some I've found myself, most, not so much.

A very small part of my bottle collection. I have many, many more, but those are for sale.
I'll have to photograph my WWII stuff next!

My current, humble little WWII Collection.
ET62 M42 ND Helmet
SS Marked casing
RA 42 Casing
Three Russian army buttons
Tiger Solingen knife
NSDAP Badge
Fire Police patch
Two STG44 Magazines
One MP44 Magazine
76mm shell for M4A2 Sherman
37mm Practice shell for German PaK 36 AT Gun
37mm shell for American M3 AT gun or Stuart tank.
I'm actually wanting to sell/trade most of this stuff. I'm trying to sell the magazines especially, but not having luck so far finding a dealer who buys such things.

Very nice CW items. Unless dug from the ground myself or someone I know, I would be very afraid to purchase any civil war stuff. So much is fake. Even more so than TR regalia........
