    1813 HOME & CELLAR HOLE HUNT*COPPERS

    sniffy ( a friend from another forum)had permission for us to hunt a 1813 colonial home up in his neck of the woods.it was kinda early to go to home so,we started at a cellar hole that he knew of.
    I was the first to strike a copper.my 30TH for this year! can't get a date but it's a Vermont copper.the iron shoe buckle was in the same hole with it.
    About a half hour later he came over holding a copper.a 1801 i think? Draped bust large cent.i saw this cool lookin tree and had to get in it
    a few buttons and not much else.then we headed to the homesite.
    sniffy pulled a few things and a 1902 IH.
    i got 5 IH's...1864(can't see any L so...),1874,1875,1890 & 1902.
    a 1864 2 cent piece,4 wheaties & a 1923 buffalo nickel.
    not a bad day and a pleasure to hunt with sniffy
    have a happy thanksgiving all!
    dave

    Dave you still twisting old people's arms to detect their yards?? lol lol Looks like a good day out, but I'd watch your hunting buddy. If you keep finding all the goods, he may just lay that tree on it's side and bury you there I hoped you checked it for critters before you got in it
    Finding relics is in my blood
