(update4/26/07)Take a guess at what i will find(HOLY SH#T)

[northeast hunter]

LoL.Ok i tried to dig some dirt today but the ground in still frozen there is only about three inches of thawed ground but i did find a half dollar and a few pennies.
OK what do you think i will find under my house its a crawl space maybe about 20'x12'
some spots there is only about a foot to three feet of space between the ground and floor.
Do you think there is anything under there?The ground is still frozen under there it will take a few weeks to thaw.I will keep updating with photos.
The house was built in 1863.

Re: Take a guess at what i will find

Nope been here for 10 years just haven't gone under there yet its real tight in some spots
I have three acres that have keep me busy and i know no one else is getting under there so this is the year to hit it i think.
I also think that there is nothing under there.

I found a bottle from the late 1800's, medicine bottle, liquid in it and the cork still in it. It wasn't the crawl space but under the porch when we were doing repairs. Lucky I didn't get hit in the head with the hammer swinging, guess I'm a good duck . I think you may find a coin or two maybe a bottle, maybe a nice surprise. Good luck to you.

P.S. Don't get too excited if you find something, wouldn't want you knocking your self out under there .

Well the wether was about 75 and i decided to try under the house.It's not as frozen under there than i thought.
I did not expect to find what i did.I got signal and begin to dig i found a molar i could not believe it i did not stay under there very long i am still shaking.I did not even bother to dig the signal i left.

You gave me an idea,THEN took it away- with that molar..lol We have a crawl space at the back of our cellar.. Never ventured thru it..lived here for about 14 years.. old house as well.. very creepy.... maybe this will explain your molar.. my grandfather use to say, his dad would sit on the back porch of their house and yank out his bad teeth with a knife.. maybe it was an extraction.. :P
