Went to a old "stand by" place I hunt when it is too dry to dig in the lawns. Its about a half mile square and was a pig farm back in the late 1800's. Has quite the history. They used to cart in all the leftovers and garbage from resterants and dinners, from the area, back in the day and feed the pigs.
Along with the slop, there are coins mixed in, along with about anything imaginable.I have found some great stuff here over the years.Lg cents, Halfs,barbers,mercs, over 200 wheats.Trade tokens,"good for " tokens"
Oh and the spoons,,they are everywhere. Have 176 I saved including 3 silver spoons. It is not easy to detect at this place.There is so much junk it is hard to get a perfect signal on any coin,but it does happen occasionally.This merc rang in perfect on the ace.
I have had the Ace for 12 days,its hard to use at a place like this when still learning how to interpit the iffy signals.I mean when objects are mixed together.Can't take a step without getting at least 1 target that gives a bell tone from one direction but not the other.
I dig everything at first(about an hour) then start getting picky. Maybe just the targets that seem smaller wt broken bell tone. Then at the end when I'm wore out. I scan around looking for only the perfect signals.In doing this , a person starts to realize how many broken signals are in the ground(some descent) (!000's of them)
Like I said,, this place is a hard to detect.
Any imput or ideas for a place like this(basically a dump with coins mixed in) would be appreciated.
Thanks for listening to me rant.
P.S. I already have some asprins,,,,and some beers in the fridge.
