Serious Question...Need help

[kevo]

I recently was able to figure out where a Spring is located that was a camp spot around 1800, and even before Kentucky was a state, it was still part of virginia. Well, the land is for sale and is actually very close to the interstate. I have no idea who owns the land but i'm sure with all of the industries going up it will be built on soon. You think I should go ahead and search it and just hope nobody says anything? It's got a spring and a big field, about a football field and a half.

I wouldnt. If it's for sale you could easily contact owner. Good luck Ron

I would have to agree with Ron. Always ask permission and always fill you're holes. Don't want to go around giving MD'ers a bad name before you know it there will be no detecting signs everywhere and we don't want that.

I would give the seller a call and ask him if it would be ok to hunt for old buttons or old cartridge cases with my meal detector. Keep the money/coins out of the conversation as some people immediately see big $$$$$$$ and shut right down. Also Fill the holes and keep it neat. .02 HH

IF there is a For sale sign Call the Number.

OR Look them up on the Internet.
Most Real Estate services have web sites.

EMail them if necessary.

IF their office is local stop in.
Face to face should always be a First Resort.

Good Luck !

Check your local tax appraiser's office.

Get permission. You can't detect while sitting in jail!!

 

[RON (PA)]

I would have to agree. You need to get permission. Just don't go digging without permission. You can get into big trouble and detecting from jail is kinda tough.

Yeah it would be best to ask first. Even if you did so good that they could not tell where you dug they could say you de-valued their property and get you in hot water. Good luck!
