What's new

Went out again and found proof of the age of where I found the cache, bucket lister!

Good stuff coming from there, I am sure there is more to come ....congrats.
 
That place has a lot more history than a 1900s home.
 
Bud, you are making us look bad!! Just kidding, you are on a heck of a site. Congratulations to you and look forward to the rest of the history you will save.

You can knock it off any day now. :tongue3: Just kidding, Congrats on pulling a bucket lister, :occasion14: you are in the zone and have a great area to hunt. Keep the posts coming crabstang.
 
Pillar and Globes Mexico City mint. The Pillars represent the Pillars of Hercules, an ancient symbol for the straights of Gibraltar. The globes represent the old and new worlds. Nice digs
 
Alright! Enough of this. It's been in the 50s the last few days and the snow is gone. I'm putting the batteries back in the machine and going out tomorrow.

You, crabstang, are my current TreasureNet muse.

Congrats and keep the goodies coming!
 
Awesome man I would spend a lot of time pounding that area congrats....:icon_thumright:
 
Congrats on your first Spanish silver. I think with what you have found there so far, I would spend the rest of my life hunting that area.
 
your killing it!
 
I can barely keep up, Congrats on the amazing site and finds. I hope its still just the beginning:)
 
i have a feeling you may have just scratched the surface...i mean to say...why would anyone just bury a single box of rings...is there more?...much much more?
 
Congrats on the half real. Some pretty decent detail on that one. Every one I've managed to find has been worn almost beyond recognition.
 
Congrats on the Spanish. A picture is starting to emerge of that area. Maybe a house site nearby (or under asphalt)
 
So, what are we thinking is the overall picture of this site? If I'm not mistaken, you found a WW1 U.S. button, modern silver, and all the old stuff. Have you checked any old maps to see what was there historically and more recently? Two CENTURIES of finds is surreal.
