CELLAR HOLES WITH THILTZY* 3 COPPERS & BUTTONS*90 COPPERS ON THE YEAR!

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

Well I talked to Todd(Thiltzy) and he planned a trip up here.there was one cellar hole that I really wanted to get back to from the summer.It was overgrown then & still is with Mountain Laurel.so we hiked down to it.This time i saw where the barn foundation was since the leaves are gone now.we started our search there .Todd was the 1st to hit a coin.Then finally near the barn foundation i got a nice coin reading out pops a regular KGIII.not much else around the barn except my oxknob :hairpulling: did i ever mention I hate them things? :thinkingabout:
we wandered over to the cellar hole.it's pretty rough swinging with the mountain laurel but we were patient & kept at it.got a few buttons,one is a gorgeous designed one piece.then i got 2 more coppers right in front of the hole a 1769 KG III Hibernia & a nice 1812 classic head large cent. was a nice day for both of us,a real pleasure to finally meet Todd & detect with him and this brings my large copper count to 90 on the year! unbelievable year for me.happy holidays to all of you! :goodnight:

Actually the 1st copper was a plain KGIII,the 2nd one glowing green was the hibernia.the stamp inside the ring is 18K.was gold plated at one time.still has some plating inside band.wonder if these people paid for 18kt back when it was new not knowing it was brass? was a great day & had a blast detecting with you.your'e a good dude.glad you got a 1st to cross off your bucket list.yeah go easy on Dan,he's a land lubber you know! rofl

Some fantastic finds there, Dave! Three terrific old coins and a wonderful old button! How many coppers from the 1700s have you found this year? It still blows my find, finding coins that old!

Very cool that you were able to hunt with Todd. It sounds like you both were able to find some goodies.

:congrats:
