Greetings. To get right to the question. I have on several occasions been blessed with virgin dirt. ( 1st time detected ) I find lots of pull tabs and other odd junk. Yesterday I even dug up a rusted 6" length of barbed wire. BUT,,,,,, no coins. The tabs and bottle caps are old and their are many signals but again no coins. Yesterdays property was on private land. It is about 3 acres and has been used for a playground since the 40's. It is at the end of a private driveway so I have been assured that I am the first one there. The owner is very lenient about holes just so long as I continue restoring properly. I am using a new XLT E series. I hunt mostly in "coin mode" Do you have any comments or suggestions??
