I'm in West Pittston. Mostly been looking in my yard and neighborhood yards. Some are houses that are vacant since the flood. Found a pint jar full of coins...one silver dime and a bunch of wheat pennies. The rest are 1919 to current. Went to what was luna park from 1906 - 1916. Spent about 3 hrs there and all I found was a penny...but it was an 1883 indian head.

with detectors being out for the past 40 years ta find decent spots ya gotta think outside the box

Ask your neighbors if you can MD their yard. I offer 25% of whatever I find. Most parks and such don't have anything left but yards haven't been touched.

that is what I have been doing . Other then that there are Indian Villages I know of that had white man contact and the farm i grew up on( southern style plantation built in the 1880s with 2 barns, ice-house and several other buildings that went with a 22 room mansion,which burnt down in the 70's) My father had a crappy MD back in the early 80's and he hunted most of the farm so its slim pickens for me . Are any of you guys members of the Black Diamond treasure hunters? I was planning on joining, printer doesn't want to work properly so I'm gonna go to the next meeting (may 13th, Kingston Borough Building) and join. hopefully they could point us in the right direction.

[mustangpalmer1911]

[MackDigger]

Yeah I hit a few parks and found a bunch of clad but that's about it. How about you?

same. I'm hoping that rain makes the deeper targets easier to hit.

Remember Angela Park?

I haven't lived in the valley in close to twenty years. I know Angela Park has been closed down for a long time. Maybe you guys can get permission for that area.Good Luck!

Ok I just did a little research it is a old amusements park/picnic area in drums along 309.. It was thriving in the 50s but now it's just a big stretch of flat land waiting for us to find what's been lost! Thanks for the tip.
