Never found anything exciting in a post hole myself but I did find a silver spoon marked USN once when Dad was digging up a stump.
Talking about Dad, he found the power line to the house buried less than 3 inches down when digging a post hole to install a handrail for a set of steps. Granted the power panel was only 6 feet to the right of the steps but the line was supposed to be at least 3 feet deep, not 3 inches, and he didn't plan to dig down much more than a foot since the post was also going to be attached to the steps. When he called to get someone out for a repair, since he had cut one leg of it, the operator didn't believe he had cut anything (remember 3 inches, not 3 feet). When Dad explained that he wasn't stupid and knew the difference between sparks from a rock and those from a 100 amps of electricity blowing the post hole diggers out of the hole and leaving a melted spot on them, she changed her tune. Guy that did come out took out his knife and started poking around in the hole ooking for the line (or a rock?????). He then poured water in the hole and poked around some more. Dad went in the house and called the power company back and described what the idiot was doing. By the time he got back out the guy's radio had come to life and he got sent on another 'emergency' call and a new guy showed up to fix the line about 30 minutes later.
