Not one coin ! Unless there are some in the locked box I found ! UPDATE !

[MaineRelic]

January 9th and I can still get out ! Most of the 6 inches of snow we had has melted and tempertures were a balmy 38 today ! I am very limited to where I can dig as only the south slopes covered with leaves or heavy matted grass are not frozen solid. I hunted the south facing slope of another costal stream . There was an old buggy trail that followed the stream. I walked and detected this trail where it was not frozen. The signals were scattered yet fairly steady . I don;t ever remember finding 4 harmonica reeds on a single hunt and yet not find a single coin. Unless there are some in the hand made wooden box I found hidden or lost just under the leaves at the base of a big oak . I have not opened it yet ! It looks like a school carpentry project. My wife is dying to see what is inside . Any guesses ?? It makes very little noise when shaken so I am guessing paper . I just hope it is green paper !! Thanks for looking !! MaineRelic. I waited till after the football game was over to open the box. I had the drill all ready. It took all of 10 seconds with my wife waiting impatiently ! A little bit of tobacco is all that was in the box . Not wacky tobacco just plain rolling tobacco . Next time MaineRelic

I'm guessing a treasure map...the exposed screws will make it easy to open.

Those screws look like dry wall screws and the hinges are for sale today at any Home Depot....I suspect the box is not at all old...

OK MaineRelic open her up the suspense is killing me I don't think it would be a geo cache box as it has a lock. Nice finds.

Yep. . . that's my guess too.

I found one of those today out in the woods under a huge fallen tree. . . I didn't have a pen to write my
name so I put it back where I found it. . . :P It was placed there in 2005.

I don't think anyone's going to argue with that observation. The mystery isn't the box, it's what's inside it. Maybe it's a Home Depot receipt!

Well, judging by the condition of the hardware, it hasn't been outside too long. I'm going with letters written to a loved one.

Drugs? Whatever it is, you're a man of restraint, Maine. I would have torn that thing open with my teeth.
