New cellar hole, new copper and relics

[Thiltzy]

Yesterday I did some new research in Allyson's neck of the woods and found a few potential site's. One that caught me eye was deep in the woods and thought maybe it would be a better candidate because it was very secluded. We started the day late and after a very long hike and hours of searching, I finally found the site I was hoping for.

We only had about 2 hours to hunt before sunset so we got to it My first target was a rusty square nail then the very next target gave me that sweet coin signal at around 5 inches deep. Sure enough it was a King George II and copper #43 for the year. In the same hole was the mangled tongue of an old shoe buckle along with another square nail. Next was a very nice complete pewter button in great shape with no flaking. An old tombac and shoe buckle frame were all nice old targets. An interesting piece that I pulled next was what looks like a name plate of the owner of the cellar hole... G.L. Ferguson

Allyson made out good as well with a few buttons, spoon, Braided Hair Large Cent and a unique object that had a star etched into it. It is about the size of a dollar coin and surely colonial. Hopefully she sends me pics and try to get an ID on it.

Nicely done, I'm glad someone else digs square nails. lol
Shoe parts in the same hole with coppers? Sounds like you found a winner site there. |

Yeah Rob, It is a Chinese coin. I forgot to remove it from the picture since I found it in my yard and have no clue what it's doing on my property. It seems pretty old but I know nothing about those types of coins

Great looking site Some good targets for the short hunt. I'd be chompin' at the bit to get back there if I were you.
