Aaron and I had a half day at a local old home and had a pretty productive day! My total was 1 Standing Liberty Quarter(no date), 4 silver quarters 1 48' S,1 48', 1 56' and 1 63', 3 1941 Merc dimes, 5 silver Roosevelt dimes 1 46', 1 48', 1 58 D and 2 63, bunch of clad, another unfired muskett ball, one flowery button and one 1894 Indian head. Also two small lead rev war toys not in the picture from the same place, they are both on horse back and there is just enough paint left to tell one is American and one is British. Not a bad day

Thank you, we had fun! It rained here last night so the ground was perfect for digging and detecting. Aaron's detector found a toy cannon that was a good 10+ inches down, I thought that was pretty deep

Thanks, I owe Aaron a big thanks to for the pin pointer, saves time and makes the recovery much easier. Deb just keep knocking on doors, sometimes you get shot down but the worst a property owner can say is no, then just move on to the next one

Most of it was a pocket spill from an earthen roof covering some type of dome shaped underground storage thing

That was an awesome pocket spill! Not too often you'll find 8-10 silvers within 3 feet of each other. Had a great time.

Here is the cannon I found on the same property. It was a good 10". Deepest find of the day for me.
