Got permission from the Mayor himself, to detect anywhere in the city. 
I had my eyes on a some older property where the houses (30's-40's) were being moved out. Someone had told me the mayor owned it, but come to find out he didn't. But, told me it shouldn't be any problem since the company that owned it was about 2 1/2 hours away. So, I headed over there for a short MDing session, less time since I had an appointment in another town. While there I met a guy, who worked for that company, he told me it was best to MD the yard where one of the houses was jacked up to be moved since they had not bulldozed the yard, and hauled off the excess dirt. Left for my appointment, came back @ 1:00 MDed just the driveway and found all the clad (34 coins =$1.27). Hey, that's pretty dang good for me...the most ever I've found in 3 hours. 8) Found the gold colored car...no clue to the make or model, Strawberry Festival Doubloon, a marble & the old screw top bottle & the connector. I ran the Ace in the coin mode only, now when I go back I have to use the jewelry mode. Too much other metals crushed in the soil to run in all metal mode. Now, I need to take 2 Advil's, a long soak in a hot tub of water & off to bed. Man, I'm aching.
