Well today after all the family left and everything was cleaned up I told my wife I was going to some local home-sites. I went to a home-site just a block from my house at first. While hunting a woman came out a told me she has lived there for over 45 years and all the dirt was hauled away, 
so off I went to another home-site I had detected earlier this year. I had hit the area around the house pretty hard earlier this year so I decided to go over to the old barn location. Boy was that a great ideal. I was using my 1050 coil on my Explorer SE today. About 10 minutes into the hunt I got a 03 29 hit @ 5" (1944 Mercury Dime). 8) The next hit was two wheats in one hole (1919 D & 1947D). Then as I was swinging around a old concrete watering trough I got a nice silver sound of 00 29 @ 6" (1903 Barber Quarter) . 
This is my happy dance. After settling down a bit I started around the old pump house door way. I then got another silver hit of 03 28 @ 8" (1919 D Mercury Dime). After swinging around the pump house awhile I ended up with two more wheats (1945 & 1919). As it was getting dark and colder so I decided to check next to a fence post that I thought might have been the gate of pasture area. I again got a nice silver signal of 03 29 @ 6" (1962 D Rosie Dime). So enjoy post and thanks for looking.
Sorry I just got a new scanner and I have to learn it.
