CTTodd and I rambled into uncharted territory today. Our destination was a site that is remote enough that we needed to use Todd's ATV to get there. We had a pretty good idea where the cellar hole was that we where looking for but once we got to there we didn't see it. Since there was so much land to explore we moved on until we found another promising site that was not on any of the maps I have researched.
Fortunately the detecting gods where looking down at me today. I end up finding three large cents and a two cent coin pocket spill.. I have never had that happen before. I also found some nice buttons. I am working on getting some videos up of the hunt.

That is a picture of CTTodd on the prowl for Colonial coppers.

Looks like you got yourself a nice spot Gary. Love finding LC's almost as much as colonials. Finding a pocket spill with 3 LC's and 2 Two Cent pieces is amazing. I've only found one 2 cent piece in more than 30 years detecting. Way to go!
