I'm diggin this Saturday...somewhere. What say you?

I just gotta get out and find at least one old coin to get my fix. The snow should hopefully be gone by Saturday. I am gonna ask at an old home site after work tomorrow. If they are not home or I get a no I'll hit a park or something Saturday. Jim in Jackson County

Good luck if you do get out Saturday, Jim. I got out a little tonite (wet/snowing) and the ground is spongy. Found about 20 clad in an hour. I'm still learning to tweak the dfx, and today I received a new 5.3" coil and Lesch digger in the mail. I'm going to try the smaller coil in the park to pick thru the trash.

I recieved permission at the old house site. YES! I detected it a few years back with a friend but its a big place, big yard. Hoping to find a few we missed. Its an 1840s cool old stone house. Bought as old as they get in my neck of Michigan. Can't wait til tomorrow. I'll give a report tomorrow. Hope I'll be posting at least one old coin. If not oh well, I love the chance to be at a place that could produce old stuff. We shall see. You guys that have been diggin, is the ground totally unfrozen and diggable? Jim

Southern Mich is diggable! I was out yesterday eve and this afternoon..just make sure you have a good digging tool, as i've bent two of them in the past 2 weeks.
The best places to dig are where the snow has melted (duh).

Well, I'm hooked on this hobby, to say the least. My wife is terrified that I won't get anything done around home...I know what i'm doing over my vacation in 2 weeks...
