I have lived in this same place for almost 10 years and keep hearing how about 75-100 years or so ago there used to be an old home right in my backyard.. As the story goes, the old man that lived there used to bury all his silver coins in jars in his backyard and it is still there ripe for the pickings.. It is an empty lot now and all grown over with trees and weeds and just generally a thick wooded area just behind my house.. No one has ever looked for those jars of silver coins and no one that I know even has a MD to even check. The man that owns the property said I could do whatever I wanted back there that he didn't care as long as I didn't hurt myself and try to sue him.. I will be checking this out as soon as I recieve the Garrett Ace 350 MD that I ordered (should be in 7 days or less.) .. Seems to me if this story is true that someone would have found it by now but the people around here only seem to care about what they can get that someone gives them and not even interested in trying to look.. I figure I need the exercise anyways and who knows, it just may be true.. You all will know if it is 'cause I'm sure you'll be able to hear me hollering "WHOOPEE!!! if I do find several jars of silver coins.. Oh well, just thought I'd let you in on the tip I got and will be off hunting soon...
