Demand for real Civil War relics booms in Georgia

In Kennesaw, Georgia, Civil War relics fetch high prices as collectors seek authentic Confederate money and equipment. Dent Myers, owner of Wildman's Civil War Surplus, notes rising demand and confirms prices up to 4000 for rifles and 2000 for belt buckles. Musket balls remain cheap at about 2 dollars. John Marcinkowski paid 24000 for a one ton Pennsylvania can-non, reflecting the era’s growing appeal.
