I received permission to detect a homesite built in 1910 after helping find the wedding ring that the young man's wife lost in the yard this spring. So far I have found a 1901 V Nickel and just 5 wheats (1928, 2 - 1937s, 1944 and a 1946) and a ton of clad along with countless pennies including our favorite Zincons.






So far, the silver coins have been elusive. Yesterday, I had a 12-46 (quarter reading) at 8" and thought, "Finally"! Turned out to be three clad quarters!
Tons of spent bullet casings and of course iron everywhere. I just need to slow down and grid an area. The owners have been great and welcome me back so hopefully, next time I'll report back with some silver. I understand the previous owners had a vegetable stand years ago so I'm trying to find that area.
