OK... this is kind of exciting. I got permission to hunt an old farm site. The owner was an old bachelor who lived there most of his life. He reportedly had money but didn't really spend much. His family always speculated that he probably had cream cans full of money buried on his land.
The man passed away years ago and the house has been torn down. Nobody has ever searched the property with a detector. Can't wait for the snow to melt! I think I will start in the grove where the house was. If I can find out where the master bedroom was, I will start in the area of the grove that could have been seen from that bedroom window.
So...I know it is a long shot, but a person can dream of treasure, right? Since the house is gone, I can assume that there will be nails everywhere. I will need to discriminate them out. If there are, in fact, silver coins buried in a steel container and I discriminate out the steel nails, will the detector still see the steel container or the silver inside it?
Thanks for any advice!
