One would think but I've hit many old field and farm site's woth the same results here in Maine alot of farmers move to more fertile lands after the civil war.

I feel your pain there. I have not pulled one old coin from the ground where I live. In-laws bought an old abandoned farm with gutted house back in 1963 and built new home. I’ve found old horse tack and farming pieces but zero coins. My theory is the ground around the house was never “farmed” so the tree leaves came down and the grasses were cut in the fall and left on the ground. There were cows and horses grazing but no bailing or swathing. This, I think, over many many years that the coins are simply deeper in the ground that normally expected. Just my thought but similar hunts kinda go the same way…….
