We have recently purchased a new old house (mid 1880's) that has not been lived in for at least 15 years. It is located near downtown Lexington Ky on land that historically was a staging area for Civil War troops. The entire lot around the house has been under pavement since the 1950's and we plan on removing most of the pavement over the next couple of months. My question is, I want to make sure no relics or (dare I hope?) caches are not removed along with the pavement-will a metal detector be useful to detect anything that may be under the asphalt? I love treasure hunting and have always wanted a detector-this is a great excuse to get one-any ideas? Thank you!...Lisa
