I spent three days detecting back in my hometown at all these "great" spots but only came up with some wheaties. Then I went to my Brother-in-laws house thats nothing really special. I had went over it before with my G2 and got nothing, I went with my AT Pro this time and found some wheats and 4 silver. The first was the Walker Half, the second was the Rosie which was stuck to a Wheatie. The next day I went over the place again (its only a 30 feet by 20 feet front yard) and found the Merc and then the Washington. Funny thing is I hit it really hard the day before, have no idea how I missed the two silvers. I do believe now that if you have any good sign that there might be coins, GO SLOW, or you will miss them. Hope you enjoy the pic.
also, the copper is a Half Penny 1935 from Great Britain I believe. Found it in town at another house. nicked it with my shovel...RRRRR
