Got out with Foundation Hunter today.trying to get permission to access this cellar hole landed us permission from to colonial homeowners to do their yards.
we found the cellar hole.i got a oval knee buckle,a oval brooch & the busted crotal bell from that site.
we went to the 1814 house some clad,the yard definitely was filled in.on to the white 1797 home.Gary got a real nice 1785 VERMONTIS copper.
i dug the civil war store card,v-nickel,IH,1849 Large Cent,toy soldier and shoe buckle.
what nice elderly people,they invited us in for a soda & said come back anytime !

Those are some nice finds there Dave :clapping: Each one is in pretty good shape, especially the token. Gut feeling is that token may be a sought after one. It looks like a good collectable theme on it. :dontknow: You guys did well. Is the Vermont a Tensium copper?? (landscape or the just the Britannia type?)
