ok - so here's the story - i've gone to decent size farm now easily 15 times now and have found NOTHING - it's one of those places that you know there are coins there - everything is just right for it 150+ years old, it has a little store that's been around for 80 years, old historic farm house - lots of grass and old trees ... but again i hadn't found anything at all except a few wheats here and there from the 50's

so i go back again sunday morning for about 1-1/2 hours and hunt the few spots that i hadn't covered yet ... and BAM, within a 10ft area by a big tree in the front yard i pulled 8 silver coins, a dateless buffalo and a bunch of wheats - man was i happy !!!!

goes to show ya, ya just never know !

thanks for looking

''Never know'' today might just be the day!! get swingin....
 
hey thanks everyone for the great posts !

it was a little frustrating going home time after time with very little to show, especially when it was such a prime spot - it was definately one of those days you remember for a long time though

i used my SE's stock coil on every trip - but my replacement 16.5" excellerator coil just came from kellyco today, so i can't wait to get back to the site and see what's down deep !!!!

take care !

A lot of private home site I hunt the "goods" come from one primary area. Some sites have a couple hot spots but it's sweet when you find that hot spot.

Very sweet on the finds!

Nice bunch of silver and sounds like a good spot. Now find the odd places around the farm and hit another bunch.
 
Great silver day. Congrats. Ron
 
great day! awesome silver! :o ,i need one of them silver trees. go back now find em all!!! ;D
 
Nice finds,

Good for you man for having so much persistence. That's what it takes alot of the time. You cover very little but may feel you covered a ton.

There may be a few more nooks here and there around that place.

Wow, congrats on the silverload!! That's a nice haul.
Best of luck on return, there's got to be more there.
Cover that area sweeping from at least 3 different directions.
Good luck! Thanks for sharing!

Smiles!
