New cellar hole yields 5 Largies and lots of relics on day 1

[johnnyblaze]

I have been through this 5000 acre section of woods last year on the main trails looking for cellars with my buddy and came up empty..
So looking at a 1870 map im seeing there was a house out there somewhere..
Took my mountain bike all day Friday looking in these woods and finally got a small glimpse of a wall
as i ventured off the trails i started seeing lots of walls
Then came across the cellar i was stoked
Couldnt find any dig holes and the area is about 50 acres

Headed out this morning with the detector and started pulling finds right away
cuff links
the crotal bell still works
Is that other piece a comb
A strange large counterfeit with little squares and numbers
I think the small buckle is a civil war buckle..Its got markings and is stamped 1863

Relic after relic with no coins..About 2 hours of hunting then i hit a spot that was 10x10 and got 5 large cents in a row..

Then the large oval buckle.
I was going over the area where them large cents were and got a signal near the tree,started digging and it ended up being a yellow jacket nest
They were in my shoes stinging me,on my butt and leggs i got stung around ten times.Half hr hike to the truck...
So i got out of there but that spot is hot man

Those are some really great finds John!
Love the old spoon and all the different buckles that you found out there!
Maybe head back again in September when the hornets are dead!
I found a buckle very similar to your 1863 model, but mine's 1871!

[BobinSouthVA]

wow that is a great spot.

I found one of those buckles, I think the consensus is it was used on the back of the pants to adjust the waistline.

damn can't wait to see what else you pull out of there.

 

[CrazySlasher]

Great score! I have a few of the buckles. I think someone here told me there from a carbine sling.
