Remembered a cellar hole from years ago before detecting and found it again today. Got it's location on my Garmin and started to explore. Not shown in pics are the tableware pieces of colored glass, whiteware, and china saucer, all found in the hole, as were the iron ring and colgate lid. Located outside the structure were the suspender piece, the Peters No. 12 'League" headstamp (1901-1911), what appears to be part of a pewter spoon or fork (glued back together - snapped when I tried to straighten it), and an 11.5 inch green glass bottle with a shamrock embossed on the base. HH and thanks for any comments.

DANG LOOK AT THAT PEWTER OR LEAD SPOON HANDLE AND THE 4 LEAF CLOVER TOP ON I THINK A COLD CREAM JAR . GOT SOME GOOD ONES IN THE MIX.
 

Sutphin and KK,

Plan on going back, removing fallen stones to top of walls and then clearing out all the metal. Thanks for your comments.
 

Thanks, VP. Looking forward to returning there after the frosts in the fall.
 

More research on the bottle has shown a match with Cloverdale Springs Co. of Baltimore, that used a 4-leaf clover embossed on bottle base. Comparative photo attached.

Really cool bunch of finds.
 

Love that green! And Design!
 

Congrats on your detecting OBN. Will post soon. Have a permission on a farm in Nelson Co., VA to detect.
 

That is a wild color green
