Hey guys, I have been detecting for a few weeks now, and have been hunting mainly old schools. Unfortunately, the schools are still in use, so I'm finding lots of current coins. I have so far dug up 145 coins, and not the first one is even a wheat penny! How many coins did you guys have to go through before you started finding the good stuff? I have been hunting with a bounty hunter quickdraw II, a bounty hunter discovery 2200, and an Ace 250.

Keep hunting your wheats are under the clad. Some times you got to get rid of a layer or two of clad and trash to get the good stuff.

They will come.. Old schools and parks are usually pretty good places but you might try getting permission to hunt around some old houses that are for sale. I have found several silver coins and loads of wheat pennies around these type sites. I have also found really out of place coins at some modern schools because I believe kids take them from their parents coin collections and lose them on the playgrounds.
