[size=large]I only had an hour or so to detect so I went to the local fairgrounds. It will occasionally give up a civil war bullet and even less occasionally a silver coin. I was in the middle of digging a 12" bullet disguised as a rusty bolt when I hear a vehicle driving right up to me. I didnt know who it was or what they were going to say. The guy pulls up and asks if Im finding anything. I told him just some junk. He then asks me where I have detected. I pointed to some areas. I had hit in the past. He then proceeds to tell me that during the fair they took a straw bail and tore it all up and them threw a bunch of coins into it for the kids to find. He tried to point out the area, then just drove his truck to the spot. I walked over there and he pointed out the spot. I started searching and right away I hit 3 quarter signals. I offered them to him because he was kind enough to tell me about it. He then left and I proceeded to find all these coins. It got dark so there are probably some more scattered around. I will hit the area again sometime and see what is still there.[/size]

Interesting hunt!
Hey, you just gave me and metal detectorists all over the world an idea about a new way to celebrate Easter morning, but the significant other has to agree to bury them.
