Conoco Buyout

[stoney56]

Well, I was able to get out for about an hour this afternoon before obligations made me quit. There is a few blocks of houses nearby that are being razed. They wouldn't let anyone in till the houses were gone and the ground leveled. Definitely going back tomorrow and see what else will show. For a while I ran all metal w/iron nulled and found a couple of mems., some .22 cartridges, and some lead seals from cast iron pipe, also lots of aluminum. Then I switched to disc. mode and ran high disc.-about 8 1/2. I then found a few coins and not much else. Here's a couple of before pics of the area and a pic of the coins I found in about 45 min.
Tomorrow I plan to be out there early since there's been other silver including an 1899 barber dime and a silver watchband found, I will give you an idea what the area looks like now.

Reif, there's a rumor that it's going to 14th just to give you an idea but gonna take a few years I think. In the mean time it's door knocking time before the yards are torn up then the looong wait for the soil stirring.
