5 hr hunting at new cellar hole, a few keepers, pic heavy.

[treblehunter]

Yesterday I went out late with an old buddy of mine (he only detected once before) I wanted to hunt for a cellar hole I seen on the old maps. I found the hole after about a 20 minute walk in the woods. My second target was another first for me, digging a fully intact oil lamp. We were there about an hour. Today I went back by myself (after he backed out) I hunted for 4 hrs. My keepers were the oil lamp, flat button, wheat back 1940 penny, pocket watch lid, and a religious medallion.
Enjoy the pix, it was a pretty day for Dec. great for pix!

Damn nice finds, looks like a good spot pound it good..

Thanks buddy.

Very nice, , the lamp base is a keeper, for sure

thanks

Nice hunt! Looks like a promising cellar hole and those lamp assemblies are always awesome to find. You got a really nice one... that really looks like it could be put back into service. ha I have a half dozen or so complete ones and they are always really deep and bent up when they were thrown out.

Thanks

First lamp I see found in that shape...That cellar hole looks like it was hunted before ? Nice finds

Thanks
It was pounded, lucky I found that, so far, ha lol. I'm not done there yet!

Maybe your buddy decided that an all day hunt to just come back with 1 maybe two keepers wasn't worth the trip? LOL
I'm just now turning the corner back toward finding "old" and I KNOW it takes a certain mentality to be a semi-serious
relic hunter. It's already kinda tough on me. I did go out for a shorty hunt today, (quit cuz I really was too pooped to dig! )
I only found one square nail and a bullet that I can't identify and a Luger shell.

Looks like you did well! WTG!
