Hunted the old church again and scored 4 keepers! In the back grass area dug another mercury dime and 3 wheat pennies.
51 more coins came off the back yard area of the church.

Hunted the front area of the church and dug down 6 inches and found two wheat pennies and a 1905 Indian Head penny in
the same hole! Also on the front grass got another V nickel, this one is a 1903! A 1945-S silver nickel and a few more wheat
pennies toped off the day!

Great finds! :thumbsup:

You will probably want to work on making smaller, neater holes if you're going to use the plug method to find your targets in lawns.


Best Wishes,

I agree with Buckleboy. I put the dirt on a cloth. Makes it faster to fill in the hole and leaves no dirt residue on the lawn.

I pass by that church every Tuesday, and had it on my to-do list to detect...no need now since you've cleaned most of the good stuff out! :D
I figured I would have been late to the party anyways :) Congrats with the finds. Fun fact: They filmed at that beautiful church in the Robin Williams remake
of "Flubber" from 1997.
