Asked permission at a new house today. Built in 1912. I thought that it would be a given that I'd find at least one silver coin. Instead I found 11 wheats!!! How is that even possible. Dates range from 1919- 1944.

Found the square thing that is dated 1906 and has $2.00 on the front along with a number. Any ideas what that could be? Also found two of the same token in different spots in the yard. WH Coughenour Dairy. Good for 1 pint of milk. Also a Montgomery county neutered dog tag dated 1919

I found some bullet casings and a .50 bullet. Now why would someone have this in their backyard?

I'm hoping when I go back I can find some silver

You've cleared the field, time to go play now! Hope the silver jumps out of the ground when you go back.

With all that in there, silver has to be around somewhere! The $2 tag is interesting. HH!

All these pennys rang up in the high 80s on my atpro. For a lot if the digs I was almost sure it was gonna be silver. Any idea why? Is there a setting I should tweak
