not sure why I have never hunted this school before, guess I forgot it was there, it is about 20 minutes from my house so not too bad. It is dated 1916 on the front and it is still in use. There is a open play area and a ball field, the ballfield is literally infested with pull tabs. At first I started on a gold quest and was digging the tabs, hoping for a ring. Then I wandered over to the open grassy play area, started getting clad here and there. Kept working farther and farther away from the school.
No old coins yet.............I was clear at the edge of the school yard when I got my first wheat, 1953, kept cruising along and I got a nice deep signal, down about 7-8" pops out an indian 1891, but it is corroded real bad. Oh well, still fun to find. Few more yards I get a deep quarter signal, I am saying under my breath, let it be silver, well it was a nice shape 1935 Washington. Then just a few more yards I got another real deep signal, dug down to about 8" and got a 1916 wheat.
I was out of time and had to leave, but plan on returning to this site in the future, I am sure there is more goodies here to be found.
