Up until today, I've only found two leg hold traps in 3 1/2 years of detecting. But I doubled that amount today with two traps in one hole! They were right next to an opening in a stone wall. Must have fallen off a wagon or maybe the trapper's horse. Not a valuable find, but still an interesting part of New England's history.
Not sure how old they are, but probably 1920's or 1930's. I find a lot of 1930's shotgun shells in this area, so that might be a good indicator of when these were lost. I'm not into trapping at all, but they're still a cool find in my book.
