Chances of finding silver?

[atkhunter]

Hey, I'm looking at detecting a ghost town. The town began in 1961. What do you think the chances are of me finding some silver coins? Thanks.

Especially given my knowledge of the site!

That's a young ghost town! Was it built around a defunct business? When did it become a ghost town?

It should contain some silver however.

Good luck!

even if you don't find silver there should be plenty of clad and other goodies. GOOD LUCK

Thanks for the help, I'll be out there next weekend.

there would only be three years of silver circulating in that town.

Silver circulated long after 1964. Just because they quit minting silver doesn't mean it wasn't circulating.
