Just think....the next one could be a wheat, maybe an Indian Head, a Flying Eagle, could even be a large cent. Hang in there...your day will come! Good luck in all your hunts!!

You're in a good location to find some old stuff!

Stay patient and you'll have that AT Pro figured out in no time. Hunt in pro mode and dig every solid signal you get!

You are at least in the silver range of coinage. Hang in there and many surprises will be waiting for you at the bottom of your little holes.

I spent 5 years digging those up before I found anything other than modern coins. Keep it up, try to reach out to find older property to dig on. Congrats on your find. There is plenty more in the ground for all of is.

Do you have any friends or family with old yards? For older coins that's a good place to start. Looks like you are on your way good luck.
