Me and my hunting buddy found this property with an old house on it that a local private school just bought and are converting it into office space. The house we were told was built in 1917, and had some big old tree's on it. They had just finished clearing a lot of brush and Ivy from under the trees, so we thought we would get permission to hunt and give it a try. My buddy who has a Safari and found (2 Large cents one 1800, and the other looks to be 1802) right next to each other. I pulled 3 coins. I found (2 1864 Indian heads), and a first for me, a 1866 (2 Cent coin). We were both wondering the history of the property, knowing that the house was built in 1917, what was there before that. We found our answer as we walked around. I found 2 old Grist Mill wheels laying on top of the ground which answered our question.
