View attachment 799657 I found my first coin spill today at a local school yard. The signal was kinda jumpy,but strong going from 60-71 on the VDI. I found the first penny,then ran the pro pointer around the hole,and got signals in a few different places,so I dug them out,and kept finding coin after coin. 2 Nickles,2 dimes,and 11 penny's all out of the same hole! :headbang: I also found 6 more pennys,and a rivet (I was hoping it was a button). I was running the ATP in Pro Zero mode. It seems like all I ever find is "clad coins"!:sadsmiley: I'm about to change my user name to "The Man from Clad"!:laughing7: Don't know what is going on with the pics.?

An old guy told me when I was young, if you want to catch big fish fish were there are big fish. Same as old coins. You need to change where you're searching. Old yards are one of the most productive places. Do you know anyone with an old house to ask or justgo doornockin.

That's what I need to do! But I think most people around here wouldn't let you hunt their yards? Guess I'll never know,until I ask?

I am in ur position...just hunted my yard dry, buy I've only lived here a few months, but I'm trying to build a good relationship w my neighbors always talking when they r outside, so I'm going to pop the question to one who has an older nice home....I already got permission to do a car wash, the guy owns two and lives q couple blocks away...after I clear the car washes I'm going to ask to do his house. It's old and nice too... But, Idk, I just have q hard time asking ppl bout their homes, I feel they all have seen the stupid shows where they bring n a backhoe... So...I think tomorrow I get the courage to ask on my immediate neighbors home..

HH and best of luck to you

Found 2.02 in clad today at the local High School. Seen one farmer that has an old house on his property and asked to hunt it. He said "I'd rather not"! Oh well. 0 for one!
