After getting permission yesterday, I did a 4 hour hunt in the front, back and side yards of a large stately looking old house built in 1940. I found 2 quarters, 6 dimes and maybe 25 pennies. The oldest coin I found was a 1965 dime. There were not even any wheat pennies. This house had (supposedly) never been hunted before.
I was using an Ace 250 and had it set on Jewelry mode. I kept switching the sensitivity depending on the amount of junk I encountered, but at times I had it up to 5 or 6 notches. Nothing I found was over 2 inches deep.
Why no silver or wheats? Any suggestions?
