50 this year and just starting out MDing...

[sugarcreek]

I am in Virginia and moving my family to S.C. soon.

Tesoro Vaquero is my first ever MD. I have about 35 hours in so far.

Today I dug 76 clad coins, worth about 6 bucks, a pair of earings, silver maybe, a Gorham Sterling spoon, and a Tiger in Your Tank old Exxon key fob. Last week I got my first 3 Mercury dimes. I have dug 12 or so wheat pennies too.

Having fun and thanks for the forum!!

Welcome to the site bud. Man your off to a good start, better than me. I've started to hit it hard when I got my new detector and am up to $17.35 in clad but no silver or goodies yet. Looking forward to your future finds. HH & good luck

Good day sir. I would suggest going to the library in whatever town you move to and read up on the local history. Look were the old pick nick grounds, military parade grounds, stage coach stops, one room school houses etc. were. Old sites that had large numbers of people, or were visited frequently, have the potential for old coins/relics.

We're in the same boat! I turn a half century old in December.
You DO however have more experience than I do...
Congrats on what you've found, and have a blast finding more!
