Tuesday morning I left the house at sunrise to hit some cellars in CT that Isaac and I found while researching. They were deep in the woods and looked like they could have (some) potential. They were pounded but did save a colonial dandy button with shank intact and a gigantic ox knob under a massive rock. LOL! I had class from 2:00-3:15 then I went into Northern RI to try a cellar I had investigated on Friday without a detector. It looked good, no iron on rocks and no dig holes. Well, somebody hit it over the weekend . Nasty plugs everywhere and of course no targets. I left soon afterwards. After school today I went back to CT to try a cellar Isaac found over the aerials this winter. We had high hopes for this site but it was absolutely pounded, not a single non-ferrous target. Looks like all you CT boys wipe places clean So, I decided to head back to the cellar hole in Northern RI where I found my half cent a couple of weeks ago. Slow going first but snagged a dandy button from the former fields. I decided to try an area near the cellar behind a stone wall with only a little bit of dry ground before a swamp starts. Got a nice midtone and pulled out a beautiful piece of flat iron. . I moved about 5 feet away and got a solid 75-78 signal a few inches down. I dug down and pulled out a beautiful colonial shoe buckle frame. My 2nd from that site. I picked up the detector and about a foot away got a midtone. I dug down and pulled out a knee buckle frame! My 2nd ever knee buckle. I moved about 5 feet away and got another high tone this one very shallow. I pulled out another shoe buckle frame this one very thin. Ladies? I then got almost the same signal about 3 feet away and pulled out a mangled, shoe buckle frame. Its complete though. I couldn't believe what I had just found. I then got an iron signal that went to midtone. I dug it and pulled out a dandy button. This little area was producing. I then swung pretty close to the waters edge and got a midtone and pulled out another buckle. I'm not exactly sure what its called but its very familiar. This one is complete but some stuff is broken inside. I think this was a post colonial dump pile where the settlers discarded their shoe buckles because they were no longer in style nor needed. That's just my theory though. Overall this cellar has really produced for me and I will make a return trip in the near future. GL and HH!
