I took Kpmoose to a cellar hole on Saturday after work. This was the cellar that I got a civil war token and Peddler badge previously so I thougnh we would give it another try. My finds included an Indian, Merc and a 1858 Flying Eagle Cent.

Sunday I got back out with Dave and tried two cellars that we have never hunted before. Both holes were loaded with iron and very challenging to hunt. The flies were out in droves and made hunting almost unbearable but we worked through it and filled our pouches with a good amount of relics. I got 4 more crotal bells, a few buttons, pocket watch, A watch FOB with a ship on it, a nice bell and a 1916 Merc(not the D mint mark :-\)

wow , whats with all the bells lately :dontknow: congrats on the flying eagle |:cheering: |:cheering: you had some very good hunts too Todd :cheering: :cheering:
 
Wow You certainly got a lot of bells. Where are the whistles? It looks like it was worth putting up with the flies.
 
Some nice finds there. Is that serial number on the watch fully readable? If so you might be able to get a manufacture date on it if the maker is known.
 
Nice weekend you guys had, funny the gnats didn't bother me nor did I pull a single tick off me yesterday :dontknow:
Flying eagle still on my list. :-\
