    CELLAR HOLE HUNT*KNEE BUCKLE*DANDY BUTTON & SILVER

    I met up with Frank (fastfrank) on right side of pic & Paul (tattoou) left side of pic.. for a cellar hole hunt.
    I finally found my 1'st knee buckle. a small broken conestoga bell,a few wheaties,a damaged cloak or dandy button,a small religious medal(anyone know what it means?greek?) and a 1944 silver qtr in franks yard at the end of the day.
    woulda been a nice bottle if complete and ever see ceramic plumbing?

    I've never seen ceramic pluming either Interesting piece though
    What ? No big coppers? lol
    You found some keepers though.
    Are the wheats from the cellar hole? Do you think the celler holes were active in that time period? Or just lost by hunters in the woods?
    Cool pics as always thumbsup01
    Congrats

    What no coppers lol Had to do it to you too. Great mug shot of you guys but fastfrank's pants have to go. rofl Who does his deocrating. Just teasin' ya. Don't know about the metal, it looked German to me, but I couldn't find anything on it. Congrats on your finds. It was a great day out today. I did about 8 hours myself. It was good to get out.

    Do the words Poison Ivy and Ticks mean anything? I'd re-think that set up for woods detecting
