OK, so I cheated a little. I found 2 $1 bills and a $10 bill folded together in the first 2 minutes. All modern (2003).
The story is I've looked at the baseball fields next to the VFW many times as I drove past because they are next to the park I MD. Finally emailed the commander and the fields had been sold. Emailed the realtor and they are going to be bulldozed in under 2 weeks. Got permission to MD.
Just my luck, since I'm correcting papers and then going to visit relatives in TN. I briefly reconned the fields today and the grass is knee high. I couldn't get the detector head closer then 3-4 inches above the ground in most places. If I had the time, I'd get a weed eater with a plastic blade out there!
I found one 1994 penny and a pull tab, but decided to retreat to research the field more. If I could figure out how old the fields are, then maybe it would be worth the effort. Decided not to attach a photo of my "finds" but here is a google earth image of the area. 4 baseball fields large, sunken dugouts and everything. Concession building still on VFW land, so I couldn't check that out.
Any advice/help would be welcome.
