HUMUNGOUS CELLAR HOLE*MID 1800'S SEATED QUARTER

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

Todd got out early with Allyson up in her neck of the woods for a morning hunt. My phone rang about 10:30 and he said they got skunked up there & were wondering if I wanted to tag along to a couple sites me & todd had found 2 weeks ago.there was supposed to be another cellar hole down the trail and we wanted to find it...and find it we did! HOLY CRAP! never in my life have i seen a cellar this big.a monster compared to the biggest center chimneys i have seen in the past.along side of this one a 100 yards away is another one thats smaller and overgrown.one of these isnt on the map.wondering if this could have been an Inn site looking at the size of it? :thinkingabout:
Anyways,i got a couple strap hinge pintels,a few buttons,one being a tombac,a huge spiked horseshoe& a tiny hatchet head, 2 ih's 1909,1880.a 1915-D wheatie,& a pretty worn 1857 seated quarter.was a nice afternoon hunt!

Great score on the seated Quaker Dave. Seems like I don't have free time to clean my finds anymore. I am still cleaning finds from 3 hunts ago. I will try to get some done before I hit the 1700's house today.
We need to get back to the giant cellar hole in the winter.

I am on it Dan, been so busy lately and Today I am hunting original founder property of a private home in Milford. It's 1630's property and supposedly never hunted :daydream:
I got a real looker of a draped bust and silver applied knee buckle from a site on Thursday. That was the special spot I found that I told you about not on any maps and I made the mistake of bringing Dave. That's were he got the pistareen before I could get to it >:{. But at least one of us found it so I am Happy for him.

Great job finding that place and hunting it! Must have been an inn in those days cause I only saw one that size/construction in all my time back east (60 yrs) Hit it some more to really clean it out and so we can drool over your finds,congrats!.....
