Very nice, how deep we're these?

From 2" - 9". The dime was around 7", one Indian was about 2", and the half was about 6" deep. The deepest was the 1942 Wheat at around 9" - go figure!

Hey Terry a "GRrreat day" I'd a called that !

 

[Metro Retro]

Great finds! But wait -- is MDing allowed in Yonkers? I thought that Westchester was off limits? What's the skinny on Yonkers and Westchester in general?

 

[steelheadwill]

Urban waterways are great sites for those with skills. Neat Finds, Congrats Terry

 

[Terry Soloman]

Thank you Everyone! Metro Retro, PM me and I will take you out with me. There are so many places to detect in Westchester. I am not sure where you got your info, but no, Yonkers and Westchester are not off limits!

 

[pl8man]

Great finds !

 

[Metro Retro]

Thank you Terry! I didn't have any info -- only when I was googling and saw a site that stated that MDing wasn't allowed anywhere in Tibbetts and then another said no where in Westchester County. Obviously, that's not the case, and thank you sooo much for clarifying.

No permits needed I assume (I hope this is the case, as I'm no longer a county resident, lol). I have to take a long trip to FLA this month, but when I get back I will PM you. I'm also interested in clubs in the area. Amazing digs!

Well done Terry and a good day out! Being a curious type ( in several ways ) I was wondering what machine you were using on your nice outing?......................63bkpkr
