I detected a fairly modern school not so long ago. In the playground was a set of monkey bars. The area under them was about 12 foot long and 2 feet wide. I found $26.90 there, and a further $33.42 in the rest of the playground. I have been looking under monkey bars ever since, with some success. Quite a few school yards have yielded $50 or more so, in Oz anyway, they are worth exploring. Getting permission is the problem, some will grant it, some won't, but have a go.

Still haven't found one of them Fatty Injuns yet but maybe one day I will. Sounds like a very old site indeed to get that old of stuff from there. Hope the finds keep surfacing for you fella's and Good Luck and HH to you on your next hunt.
