Went out today to hunt long gone ghost town.

Next to cellar hole I found this

Shortly afterwards thinking that there has got to be some hidden buried cache somewhere....
I got deep loud signal. I knew it was something big but thought "this could be the buried cache!"
started digging and holy crap!
It's the top lid of my greatest find!!!

Had to take a picture to document it's uncovered state.

CRAP! Just a stove vent lid :(

HAHA, had a great time and came home with another Chinese coin and nice sunset.

Sometimes the treasure is all around
us. Not just buried in ground.

Nice going on the cash coin, great looking cellar hole and area.
Really showing grass that high makes me simply green.

You have plenty of company!

I got a 2 ft. X 3 ft. Signal on the upper part of a beach one time and thought for sure I had found a pirates chest. Dug down 18" till I could feel ...a piece if sheet metal! Lol!

Such a picturesque setting for an old cellarhole. Is there a path to/from the ruins? any sign of a well/trashpit?

Yes there is a well. I haven't personally gone down it (yet:)
I've got three Chinese coins,one wheat penny and three Indian heads from that area.
1887,1891 & 1908
The whole area is trashy, luckily not too much modern trash. So lots of signals to dig.
