Hello fellow history hunters. Brrr it was freezing out there today in New England!



I returned to the cellar hole today with my friend Darren, who was equipped with a GT350. It was his first cellar hole hunt and found 4 buttons and assorted iron junk. I think I may have gotten him hooked. I worked the "front porch" and front yard of the cellar hole. The first thing we did was clear the fallen trees, then it was a slow process of clearing out the thick layer of fallen leaves. Eventually we were left with about 20 square feet of smooth surface to work nice and slow like. I turned down my sensitivity a bit and opened up my discrimination pattern. It worked out well because today I found 2 more coppers along with 15 buttons, nearly all from the front yard! That's a total of 6 Coronet Large Cents in 5 days from the same site! I am worried that I am setting the bar too high for future me. :laughing7:



See more pics/video and the other coins here.


HH and thanks for lookin! :thumbsup:

Hey Elad , dawg here , That's a sweet site ! I wouldn't be too worried 5 largies from the same place is extremely exciting , but wait until ya have a 16 copper day .. to set the bar . Break out the GPX if you want it to get wild and kraZy ;D

Looks like you guys have found a productive site. Those LCs are in nice shape but guess that's expected in a wooded environment. Keep hitting it hard, and good luck!
 

You're killing me! Great job!
