I check under all old clotheslines as I find them, but so far all clad...one day my luck will change...HH

Yep, yep, this is one mantra I have always practiced.

For anyone who doesn't know what to look for, watch for 'T'-shaped metal poles in the yard. Many times one will be gone, but all around those are often hot spots.

This is a good tip. I did it this summer and found some coins.

Many years ago I detected my back yard and found the old clothesline poles cut off in the concrete about 4 inches down. I also found a couple of wheat pennies too.

There is a place here in Chattanooga where there were a lot of clothes lines at a place that was going to be demolished. I went there to ask for permission to metal detect and was told in unfriendly terms to leave the premises and "tell your buddies that we do not want them here".

Boy, I hate to ask for permission to metal detect.
