Permission + Helping Others = Silver!

[Ed-D]

Not trying to toot my own horn, but thought it was a good story.

There's an elderly lady at church who lives in an a vintage home in the historic center of town. I know she has a large back and side yard so I asked if I could detect it, which she happily said yes to. When I got there I noticed a large limb down in her yard so I asked if she needed me to take care of it. She was very happy and also said that her storm cellar was flooded due to all the recent rains. So before I hunted I cut up the large fallen limb and pumped out her cellar... then I hunted.

I got a 1959D roosie and 3 wheats - 1917, 1945, and 1946. I only had time to do a part of the back yard so I am planning on going back as soon as I can.

It is nice to read of our detectors helping before hunting a property,it gives the hobby a good name. Good finds also. Should be more old coins and relics there.
