5 silver tonight out of a front yard

[Wallhangers]

I think I finally found a yard that hasn't been detected before. It is amazing how many yards were tore into when detectors first started coming out. I find a lot of pennies but the silver seems to always be cherry-picked out of them. Anyway, finally caught someone home at this site. They were sipping a cold one so I thought maybe that would increase my odds. The good thing was that I gained permission, the bad thing was this dude was right over my shoulder the whole time. Fortunately for me, I didn't find anything super old that he wanted to fight over. It is so dry here and I asked him if I could come back later when there is moisture in the ground. I couldn't seem to hit any good targets deep today. Also got about a dozen wheats and some miscellaneous relics. Also pictured is a broach found but it is not silver and not too old, judging by the depth at least.

Nice bunch of coins! A good spread of dates there too.
Just curious, did you make any sort of agreement with the other guy before you started detecting his yard? In case you had found something of very high value?

I prefer to not have them over my shoulder, but it doesn't bother me too much either. Three of the silver, including the older one, I spotted the edge of the coin and acted like I couldn't find the coin. Did the old slide between the finger trick and told him that it was probably nails messing with my machine.

I usually tell landowners that I will split anything of higher value but I make sure they know that the odds of finding anything of major value is very slim. I usually let them know that most old coins found are not worth a lot, siting some examples for them. I usually offer to give them all of the clad. I think I dug about $2 worth yesterday and offered it to him but he told me to keep it and he wished I would have found something good.

As always you find the best places to detect! I know how much research you do and it sure shows with the quaility of your finds. I love to get those old silver canadian coins they are a nice surprise while detecting.
