Large Cent and Crotal Bell from a New Site Today

[ridger12]

Me and my brother gained permission to detect on a posted site today. The property owner was a great guy who showed us other sites around the area and gave us a local history lesson too. The Large Cent is 1831, the Indians are 1862 and 1902. We have really wanted to detect this site because the former residents are ancestors of ours. It's really cool to dig up something your great great grandparents lost.

There is cellar hole there and the remains of a spring house. The guy that gave us permission, who is in his seventies, showed us were his grandmother told him the barn, chicken coop and pig pens were at too.
