A few finds over the Labor day weekend

Got out at the in laws farm over the holiday weekend. Found 3 quarters, 4 dimes, and 12 pennies (all clad/newer). Oldest coin was a 1972 penney. Also found a Christmas tree pin, small toy gun, and a few hot wheels/toy cars. I know the hot wheels used/toy cars to be my nephews so I thought I'd clean them up and give them to him for his birthday which is coming up shortly (he's in his 30's now). What I thought was interesting was one of the dimes I found was 4" down yet it was a 2000 so the longest it could have been in the ground is 10 years. It's amazing how far and fast coins will sink down into the ground around my area. Will see if I can post some pics as soon as I can get some decent shots of them as my camera is not that great. Good luck and HH to all.

WOW, that is fast sinking. I guess since your machine can only detect to about 10" max, if you want to find the real old coins you will need to go to China.:blink:

I guess I need to get a digger with a longer handle. Typically a lot of what I find is in the 4 to 6 inch range so perhaps that is the "specific gravity" that objects seem to end up in the soil conditions in my area. Then again maybe my machine doesn't have enough depth to hit the "good stuff".
