Its been about 3 weeks since I was last able to detect, my daughter was very ill in the hospital, boy did it feel wonderful to finally get out to detect its the best mental and physical therapy in the world. Decided Saturday to drive by a old vacant house myself and renogeoff have had some some luck with in the past to my surprise the house has been tore down. I couldn't get out of my car fast enough what a great start. I started getting signals right away between all the trash. I ended up finding 3 silvers, a mess load of tokens some which need alot of cleaning to identify, some jewelry, lots of wheats, foreign coins and some relics. My favorite finds are always tokens, its rare finding early 1900's tokens with Las Vegas stamped on them after 20 some years detecting this is only the 4th I have dug up. Last one I dug up is 1 of only 2 known of. All this was fiund in about 6 hours total. Will be back next weekend for sure.

Sweet finds, especially those tokens! If I'm not mistaken, the UP token is an advertisement piece, made out of the same kind of aluminum that train on the picture is made of or has in the passenger cars. Very nice!:thumbsup:

Hope your daughter recovers quickly!
That scrape they did taking out the house sure helped expose some goodies! I went back twice after you and got the silvers and 5 wheat the day after, and last night hit it and only got 2 toasty wheat. (what dates did you get on the wheats? I got a bunch of teens and 20's).
It needs another scraping! The house next door was also taken out, but they left the foundation and didn't take out any dirt. Lot of changes in that neighborhood this year. Keep an eye out for more vacancies!

Thanks for the kind words toward my daughter. Went back on this last Saturday and pulled up some more tokens, silver and relics. Hope to post soon still trying to clean them up a bit to show. Most of my cents were 20's and 30's..
