If it's that old but still lived in i find going to the furthest points of the property where it was least disturbed.
That where the Colonial will still be..
The thing that sucks is the property used to extend east west north n south huge tracts of farm land over the years it was sold off n developments/business put in so I would have to get permission from many individual owners the property now is still a good size I've found lots of stuff and what really sucks is front of the house has a old rockwall length of property which horses used to be tied to however over the years the road widened n raised so much the wall went from 4-5 ft tall to 2 ft tall there are surely lots of coins by that wall but they are too deep n now there are gas lines hydrants etc I'm gonna keep trying I've only found four silvers and lots of Indians 1878-1901 I'm really surprised I haven't found a large cent it's possible past owner may have detecting it n cherry picked the silver but if so they missed a lot of good stuff seeing your name tag I said to myself I need to break on through to the other side!! Lol love the doors!!!!
