    Sundays Cellar hole... Rev War Button, Silver Cuff Links, King George and more

    Dave and I received an invite from a great Kid named John. He lives in Mass and wanted to hunt with us on some privately owned property that is in his family. When I heard "Private Property" my mind began seeing visions of sugar plums:daydream: The 1st site was tucked just behind a field stone...

    Sunday's hunt at two cellar holes(Unique Badge and complete Shoe Buckle)

    Arrived at the cellar holes just as the Sun was coming up with a cool 38 degree temperature. It took a while but we finally started pulling targets from the 1st site. My first target of the day was a part of a shoe buckle frame at the base of a steep hill. Re-sweep the hole and still getting...

    Short hunt after work, found some new cellar holes

    Had to work a 1/2 day today so I only had a couple of hours to check out new site that I found recently. Actually, I did not know for sure if there would even be a cellar hole in this area. I had to hike up a mountain to get to the area and my instincts were spot on. In fact there were 3 cellar...

    Busted out the Rock Tumbler today

    I have tons of clad coins sitting around in plastic containers from finds over the last two years. Running out of storage room so I thought it was about time to start cleaning that clad in order to be able to cash some presentable looking dug coins into the bank. These are coins from beach...

    Not many targets but two 1st's for me on Sunday

    I see that Dave mentioned the ruff day he had as it progressively got worse for him through out the day. :thumbsdown: I couldn't help but feel bad for him as it ended with another bee assault on Mr. Wise :blackeye: Dave, this probably doesn't seem appropriate but, I just wish that I could get a...

    Large Shoe Buckle and another Connecticut copper

    Picked up Dave early and made a big mistake of hitting some sites that we did little research on. We waisted the entire morning on these sites but managed to salvage the 2nd half of the day. We headed back to the site that we got 8 coppers at last week. Today wasn't about quantity but more...

    Sunday's hunt- my oldest relic, 4 coppers, lots of buttons

    Sunday I had picked a spot that Dave and I had been looking at for a while. While making the trip, I told Dave in the car that I had a really good feeling about the sites we were about to hunt. I don't no why but, I just had one of those warm and fuzzy feelings as I was heading to Dave's house...

    Cellar Hole marathon hunt got me my third George Washington, 7 coins & more

    Got out with Dave on Sunday. We had plans to hit 3 to 4 sites so I picked him up bright and early. We had a good feeling about our 1st site marked down. When we got there we saw lots of big iron piled on rocks which is no different than 95% of the holes we hunt. Immediately, I pulled a large...

    Had to work a 1/2 day Saturday so I headed out to a nearby spot. I hunted this spot before and found an Andrew Jackson button after a short hunt. Went back for a second trip and got some old colonial buttons that included a nice big tombac and another cloak size one with a neat waffle/basket...

    Yesterday's cellar holes Most* Unique Half Cent and Gorgeous 2 Cent coin*

    Three new cellar holes yesterday with Dave and we both had decent days. I was envious watching Dave dig that US baby belt plate yet it gave me hope that there would be some other goodies to dig at our first site. I few feet from Dave's buckle I got a nice coin signal when out popped a jagged...

    Finds before I got attacked by bee's at cellar hole

    Here are some of my finds before I got attacked by bee's and broke my detector. There was also an 1882 Indian that I forgot to snap a pic of. The pocket compass was from the day that Dave and I took Ray(Kray) from the forum out to some cellars.

    Cellar hole with Dave and Allyson got me big silver

    Went back to the cellar hole I found on Wednesday where I got a KGII and started the day off with a Big Silver. Was a great start but then things got real quiet after that. After that only nabbed a cloak button, thimble, 1905 Indian and 1918d wheat

    New cellar hole, new copper and relics

    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...

    Hard Times Token and Old early Bracelet

    Dave's worst day ever detecting turned out to be pretty good for me. Earlier in the week Dave and I got another invite from our friend John to hunt some cellar holes with him in Rhode Island. After miles of hiking into the woods, we finally came upon a few cellar holes that we had mapped out...
