Missed an opportunity!

Well I had to take my mother home today so I cleaned out ALL my detecting stuff and left it home and then drove her home, an hour-and-a-half away. Pulled up in front of her house and this is what I saw!

The next door house that is over 100 years old has had between 4 and 8 inches of topsoil scraped off! And of course I didn't have my detector.

I have found 4 wheats and some tokens and toys in the yard before so I am sure that I would have found something. I did walk around for 5 minutes and found 3 copper pennies and a marble.

My mom is going to find out how long it will take for them to finish and haul new dirt in. So I MIGHT still get a chance to hunt the spot but I doubt it.

Yeah you need to hit that begore it gets covered up. You might find some goodies and you might not but you'll never know till you try.

Found out a little more tonight. The ground was contaminated with Lead. They scraped off the top layer and burned it. They are now bringing back in 4-6 inches of dirt tomorrow. So no hunting the spot.
