There was an old house nearby that recently was demolished, so a friend and I went down with our detectors to check it out. We hunted for about an hour and a half, and found a couple good finds. Lots of junk, but that was to be expected. My first signal sounded pretty good and wasn't too deep - a 1924 wheatie. Now I know there's gotta be silver hiding somewhere. Found a clad quarter, an old fishing weight, some nails. Nothing really spectacular. I did find an old ceramic or porcelain jar lid, though. It says "Consolidated Fruit Jar Company - New York". Anybody have any info on this?
We moved away from the spot where the house was, over to near an old tree. I figured people would have gathered here for picnics back in the day. My last signal for the day was a first for me. I cut the plug, and out popped a 1943 silver quarter. My first silver in over a year of detecting. I was thrilled! I'm gonna try and get back to that spot sometime this weekend and see if there's more.
No camera, so no pics. Thanks for reading and HH all!
