Seated Hill Trap ... update

[winslow]

Still finding interesting things on what I've nicknamed "seated hill". A 9 foot chain with some interesting links. Small animal trap with the words "Kriket No. 1" on it. A steel animal cut out that I initially thought was a piece of a rusty can. Chinese coin, part of a token and other assorted stuff. Add another seated coin that I found today. An 1856 S quarter that unfortunately has been drilled. It still counts in my book and that brings me up to 15 seated coins at this spot. I included a picture of all the coins (8 were out of one hole) to date not including the one from today. Don't they look pretty ?

Henry,
This is relevant to my interests. I would love to see the 26 Spanish silvers!!

Winslow, that is a beautiful photo! After 7 years I finally found my first Seated coin this past weekend. The "S" mint mark is a rare find for a 19th century coin found here in New Jersey!

Go back and find some more!!

That is definitely an impressive group of coins taken from your site. I think that there isn't one person here that wouldn't like their own private hill like that. I know I would.
Keep on pulling them out.............
Congrats on all your finds!

Nice digs.. That chain looks like it is from an old cistern pump. the strange links had rubber on them the same size as the pipe it was pulled through. The chain ran in a big circle and pulled the water up. You have some great finds from that hill.

Awesome coins. congrats. The trap is called an underspring or jump trap. No. 1 would be for muskrats, mink or weasel.
