I finally got a chance to hit a property I have been drooling over for 6 months. I hit the 2 adjacent properties last Summer and recovered 6 silvers, which included a Standing Liberty Quarter. The two houses on this property were built in the 40's. I covered the ground with my CTX 3030. Most targets were around 4 or 5 inches but one rang in at 8 inches and register 1-40, which could be a Silver Dollar.
It turned out to be a Silver Plated Pocket Watch at eight inches. Although the property didn't give up any Silver, it gave up 8 Wheat Pennies, a mess of clad, and a few pieces of brass, including a gas valve.
