CELLAR HOLE 1858 FLYING EAGLE & A 1780 HOME HUNT

Today was thinkin where to go.....decided to go back up to a cellar hole that me,b.mattioli and forino went to 2 years ago.targets were sparce there 2 yrs ago but i had a feeling it still held some goodies somewhere.worked it slow.
got a few flat buttons,a Zouvae ball button,a hunting livery button (backmark WOLCOTTVILLE)
and last target was a 1858 flying eagle penny.last time i dug one was over 20 yrs ago so,it was a sight for sore eyes.
finally got up the courage to ask this homeowner to search his yard.house was built in 1780 got the green light! had a good feeling about this yard but when all was said and done the yard was filled..a handful of wheaties oldest being 1916-s,a cool mickey mouse spoon and a sterling ring that came out of the hole in 3 pieces .his fields around house he couldn't plant corn cuz the fields are muckholes this whole season. i got permission to do the plowed fields when it dries up a bit.

Great recoveries HMN.
What a great looking spot. Congrats on that Flying Eagle.
What's up with that bracelet? Is it silver? Old? Just curious because I found a few silver ones some years ago that looked to be homemade.
Thanks,
