Hit a site today in NJ, the site had a house in it dating back to the 1930s. The. Sometime around 2008-10 it was demolished, and now is a open green space. The platinum did ok amongst all the nails and iron, I wished I had my at pro. As I was getting lots of false signals which made swinging tricky. As I'm swinging I would get high tones, but when I go check the spot nothing comes up. So it took twice as long to cover an area. None the less, I dug lots of wheaties, and I knew there has to be silver around there. Sadly it was not today, as my trip was cut short because my sister called me about going out for buffet and running some errands. I did get a IHC, and a Chinese coin.

Can't really tell the year, I'm thinking 1880.

The Chinese coin is about the size of a us nickel, maybe a little bit better.

Hopefully I can return tomorrow and pound that place, I just know there is silver there. Unless someone cherry picked it already and left the wheaties and Chinese coin for me...

Was back at the site for an hour and a half ish. Dug a small toy truck, 1 wheat cent, 2 zinc cent, one copper, and bunch of broken lead or bronze pieces.. Zero Silver, quarters or dimes, I hit a different section of the site maybe that is why.. Maybe the Platinum have trouble with all the iron targets... Guess we will never know till my AT pro comes back from Garrett, and i get a chance to come back to NJ..
