Well I started on Friday after work at the park I first visited earlier in the week I detected along the roadside and glad I did,
This park is so trashy I hunted in recovery 6-7 I had a great high tone but it was a 26-27 so I was totally surprised to see the 1894 barber quarter!
And a few feet away I had another nice signal that turned out to be a 1926 mercury dime!
On Saturday morning I met up with a friend in Milford Connecticut and went to an old school. We were finding some wheat pennies and a lot of clad change. And I found a set of keys which were the custodians so I hung them on the flag pole rope .
I was eyeing a big oak tree in the schoolyard so I headed over to that and I had a really deep faint signal that turned out to be a old copper that was holed! Not sure on the date but another find later in the day helped me to identify this coin.
After a few hours of hunting down there I decided I better head home and later in the afternoon I met up with another friend.
He told me about a school he was hunting so I decided to head over it was close by but I never even knew the school existed I started in the front yard along the fence and I had a nice 25 signal that turned out to be a 1936 Mercury dime I
So I decided to keep on working in the front yard and I was finding a lot of wheat pennies but no more silver. So I moved to a small section right along the entrance of the driveway then I had a faint high tone which I dug up a half penny! This one had a lot of detail so I was able to recognize the detail from the other coin and see that they were the same coins!
I could not believe it two half pennies in one day and both at schools not sure on dates on either..
