New colonial site finds, the silver hoarder property

[cam9457]

Found a new site down the street from me that dates back to at least the very early 1700's, possibly 1600's. It was a beautiful day here for January in the burbs of Philly so baspinall and I decided to give the new spot a shot. The property owner had told me earlier that her Great Grandfather had been a silver hoarder and buried silver bars somewhere on the property but she had no clue where. Didn't find any of those but did find some nice silver. During part of the conversation with the property owner she informed us that the the lower house(which we haven't gotten too yet) was part of the under ground railroad! It was tough hunting because there was soooooooooo much iron in the ground. So my finds for the day include a 1923 Peace dollar, a 1917 Merc, a 1917 Buffalo nickel, an 1882 and 1901 Indian, 5 wheaties(1910, 1916, 1929, 1930 and and unreadable) and 5 LC's including an 1807 and 1817! Not a bad day.
