I was driving around New London old “whaling town” lots of history a old fort also located here.
I was driving past the park I go by all the time and I noticed a spot that didn’t look like it had been turned over it looked still untouched considering the rest of the park was all new,
Well I was there detecting 5 minutes and I had a nice 26-27 on my equinox the ground here is really compacted when I flip the plug there’s a Mercury dimes stuck smack in the middle all right there’s some silver here!
I continue detecting the area for a while got a few wheat pennies an old flat button and then I had a really good hi tone very deep kind of broken up I dug down about 7 inches and there is a silver Washington!
100 for about another hour no more silver which I was surprised.
Some good amount of clad also.
I did not detect much this weekend.

Old undisturbed ground is always exciting to get your coil over especially after hunting the same place a 100 times or more.
A person needs to keep their eyes open all the time when driving around, you may spot a fresh new silver hole.

Exactly! I also look for trees near fields that look as if planted rectangular as thats were a house may have once stood. Good finds!!

Thanks Yep I worked a field that was open space and pulled a Morgan dollar and a large cent !
Then I saw a huge oak tree farther back I detected around that got a bunch of wheats two Indians and a barber dime and a mercury dime.
The only reason I decided to detect this area was because it was just recently mowed I had never seen it mowed before.
