Got done early at an LED Upgrade that I was doing and decided to try to get a hunt in. The first house I got permission at was nothing but clad, and a small yard.
Swung over by The University and took a chance on a house I've been eyeballing for a couple years. Rang the doorbell, and the lady was very nice and said sure. Said she had owned it since 1969 and it was built in the early 40's. Yep, My heart was pumping!!
Off I went. Wheat after Wheat after Wheat, then a Silver Rosie, then a hole with 2 Wheats, and when I checked it with the Deus2 after I got the Wheats out it was hitting a 96-99. Ohhhhh! Dug down a couple inches and there was a Silver Washington!!
I ended up with 15 Wheats from that yard plus an Indian I had got at some point and thought it was another Wheat after seeing the One Cent. No Complaints!! I Love coming across yards like this. Hope We All do more often.

Outstanding finds! Realistically, any house from the early 60's and back is probably going to have some wheats and silver- nice work!

Thanks Jeff!! That's true about homes from the 60's down, but landing yards that haven't been hunted in the past is a little bit of a challenge here.
