first time out.

Well I finally had a day to start my detecting. I had three target properties. One a late 1700's stone house, an old 1800's church and a local park.. the church had been searched before but I thought I'd give it a go anyway. My friend Alvin obviously did a thorough job as I only found one 1918 Lincoln penny. The local park was better. In an hour my daughter and I found 11 Canadian pennies; all recent, 3 recent quarters, two Canadian dimes and one American dime. With only an hour left we went to the old house and in 25 minutes we found an old brass buckle 3 hand made nails and a silver plated pocket watch cover then the rain set in. I can't wait to get back there. There is 3 acres of virgin property just waiting for me. Can't wait to find some old coins there. I'll keep you all posted.....

It's nice that your daughter shares your hobby with you. Hope you both find something really exciting at the old house.
