Here are some finds from the last couple weeks.
While driving the roads and keeping an eye out for detecting spots, I passed by an old abandoned home with a grass driveway lined with trees. Long story short... I got permission and fired up the machine.

I was hoping for a yard filled with old coins, jewelry and nice surprises, but got a lawn overrun with trash from the road to the house
One of the trashiest sites I've detected.
I managed to find a few wheaties, a buffalo nickel, and this 1828 Half Cent.

Next, are some pics from a couple hunts at one of my fallback sites (when I have no fresh ones). First hunt, I snagged a 52d quarter and a Raleigh Lights belt buckle along with a couple wheats. I thought I might have my second silver dollar when digging the buckle. It sounded good and was reading high half to one dollar on the mxt.

Sunday, I went back and hunted a different section of the site. I did a little woods hunting first and found a cap gun, possible shoe buckle frame, junk horseshoe pin and trash.

Later, I hit the lawn area. when searching here, you dig anything that repeats. For some reason , the yard area can throw the target id off, so..... dig everything
Well, after diggin some junk, I got a bouncy (but repeatable) signal. Out popped two Indian head pennies
I reswept the coil and got another signal a few inches away.. out came another IH

The backs are in even better condition than the fronts, but since I've already used the maximum pics allowed... you wont see them

I'm gonna be tryin a new place tomorrow. Not expecting to find a lot, but what I do find could be pretty old
Thanks for lookin,
Matt
