Dowse please?

Adjove · Mar 6, 2013

Hi all, this is an aerial photo of property that was in my family up until late nineteen eighties. Grandpa's old house is torn down now, my mom moved there in the late fifties. She said it looked at least one hundred years old then. Hoping to MD it soon, any pointers?

Old stuff or archaeological marked by green, including non-metallic such as Indian flints. I'd check the red spots first for metal detecting.

The green/Indian artifacts are a very good call. I am almost perfectly in the middle of Illinois, and the are has produced many artifacts Indian related.

Yes, I see about the Native American artifacts. The red just indicates loose surface coins or artifacts of value down to about 1-2 feet deep. Hopefully you'll be able to get some good stuff from some spots. Because there are so many, it could indicate it might be a little trashy too. Any, glad to know about the Indian.

Well I didnt come up with as many targets as Red did but in familiar places. Red is silver, Blue is gold. Thats all that matters anyways.

Ok, did a gold/silver check, not an abundance of places but added a few. blue for silver, the large circle with dark blue inside, is deeper either buried or down in something such as an old cellar hole or other type excavation. Orange spots for gold, larger filled circle is deeper for some reason also.
