New to Seriously Metal detecting and over the last 3 months have found multiple wheaties but the oldest to date was 1945. So i decided to do some old map overlays and find some older spots. After 2 days of research i set my sights on a spot known to have visitors pre 1900. After 2 hours of detecting i had found some old iron, then i found a late 1800’s button amd within 2 feet 4 inches under ground a 1893 Barber Dime. Holy S&$? Was I floored. Since this i have found a 1927 wheatie and lots of other interesting things. So to the newbies out there. Put the research time in and think outside the box and you might beat your previous coin record by 50 years or so! Now I’m really hooked!!
