Been detecting an old Camp the last few times out. Got permission and talked to some of the older residents in the area first. Results on two outings thus far:
3 mercury dimes, 1 silver Rosie, 25 wheat cents (oldest 1910), 4 Buffalo nickels (3 with dates), 4 pre-1950 Jefferson nickels and lots of clad. Also lots of bottle caps (50+).
This site reminded me the importance of those three basic rules to always remember. Work the site slowly and carefully, dig all the signals, pattern an area in more than one direction.
Also reminded me of that other important basic. If your not hunting a place that has the potential for older stuff don't be surprised when you don't find any.
