Without revealing your prized locations, have you ever run across an area that had likely never been touched by a detector and resulted in finds beyond all imagination and expectation? I happened across a modern school and church yard that turned out was the front field for a summer church festival that had been held since the 20's. There were hundreds of coins including endless silver, quite a bit of jewelry, and almost no trash. With the soft and fluffy soil, the coins might have well just jumped into your hand. It was off the beaten path and in an area with very few people around. You could detect for hours without seeing anyone. There were multi thousands of dollars to be found when it was all said and done. That was over 40 years ago. There were several other places in the city that were likely untouched and held huge amounts of coins and other things, but, sadly, they were paved over as this site was later on.
