Default Old House Hunt In The Neighborhood ...

didn't provide any silver but I did find a 1957 wheat cent, 6 memorial cents, 2 Jefferson nickles, 1 clad dime, a key, a 2003 dog tag, and a nice Buick medallion. It was a quick hunt of a nearby home which I've hunted several times. I've found plenty of clad and the occassional wheatie but no silver as yet and this house dates from the 1920's. It was a nice morning and great to be out!

Very nice hunt! That Buick item looks pretty old. I can't wait to see if anyone knows anything about it.

Nice finds, I bet theres silver there. It's just a matter of swinging the coil over it. Give it a try when the ground is real wet.
