I think the token and the railroad baggage tag are better finds than the dimes :-)

Nice hunt! 24 quarters that's amazing - usually a perfect indication that you're the first person to detect a property! You should hit it again and see what else is waiting....

Sounds about right.

You sure did get a-lot of quarters . Bet at-least half of them had you thinking "Silver" esp, at those older sites.

2 Silver Dimes & Cool old stuff = A pretty good day.

I have the entire back half of 2 of the 3 yards.

Plus, there is an an EMPTY interior city expanse of grass that was a traditional play field and woods for the neighborhood for the last 100 years that I suspect has NOT been detected, at the rear of those 2 lots. I can spend 3 days yet....

I should get in there a bit tomorrow, Monday for 4 hours.
