I've had permission to hunt this lot for a few months now , but this is the first chance I had to go out and hunt it. The lady that owns it told me no one had ever hunted it as long as she owned it ( 50+ years ). The lot is maybe a half acre flat ground with one large tree. I checked penn pilot photos from 1938 and the 1876 county atlas and couldn't find any buildings on the lot. I found 3 quarters,5 dimes one 1960 rosie, a 21 wheat spill in one hole, a 1919 wheat and 15 memorials. The wheats dated from 1939 to 1955

I second that Notion!

But until the weather breaks, I can only dream and research!

I find it interesting to see what you found from just an empty lot that has no record of activity from what you can find out. Thanks for sharing! Finding all those wheats must've been fun although I woulda hoped for a silver or two in the hole also. :thumbsup:
 
Pretty cool stuff there oldmaps.
Please post future digs from that site.
