I had to work most of the day but I brought my gear and headed out to a cellar hole for a quick hunt. I got back to a site that we have already hit once and was able to squeak out a few keepers. No idea what these people were trying to do to the 1824 Matron but it gives it a little character :lol:

That's a great pic of the ferns and walls.

Had to work today as well, but it was so nice to get out and see the sun and a nice dry breeze.

great pictures , very unusualy looking matron head.I always get a bit cautious in thick ferns like that I've caught snakes resting in them at times , be careful Todd.

Still some nice finds. Maybe it was a coin that fell out in the old field and got mangled by the plow? Idk. I am curious if this might happen to be an area hit really hard, but down somewhere in Marlborough area. I see a ton of rock walls all concentrated in one area. It's just visible from the road so I figure anyone who drives by knows about it therefore it's hit hard.

Haha, Dan. You were scared of the buck one time. This time it's the snakes? jk I figured there are so many ticks on the ferns, but I rarely see snakes. Prob 'cuz they are sensitive to ground vibrations. I do find them all the time...mowing the lawn.

Nice finds. It does look like a plow may have kissed it back in the day.
Very nice photo also.

Yeah Roger, the ferns are such a pain in the arse, but that's where the copper was.

I can assure you this is not in the Marlborough area. I was thinking plow also but didn't think a plow would cause it to fold over on itself?

Very unusual LC. Noticed that some of the buttons are also bent so I'm leaning toward a plow in the area. Great site pictures.
