I have been hunting a site that myself and friend think was a old picnic site. It is a oak grove that is maybe five acres?
For weed control they disk the area, which is good and bad! The bad, a lot of what we find have some damage. The ground has been worked to the consistancy of , maybe dog kibble? Any way, we have not found any coins deeper than maybe, three inches! I have a V3 and he has brand x, I guess I can say it , a SE with some kind of 14 inch coil? The other day I brought some buckets of dirt from the site to try a test . Got a plastic tub that is 8 in deep put a silver quarter in and put in six inches of dirt, and nothing! The next day my friend comes by , I tell him what happened, So he gets out his SE and he cant find it with his machine! I hope this winter wnen and if it rains it will make a difference in depth? This site has given up 14 v nickles, 5 barber dimes, 1 seated dime, 2 barber 25 cents, 1 barber 50 , 1 walking liberty50, and 1 1919 wheat! Oldest coin 1884 V nickle latest coin 1919 wheat! Every time I go to this spot I tellmyself I'm going to find a indian head but no luck yet!
