Always recheck hole

[mchamby]

I had a chance to get out to an old house that is being sold on the 23rd. I just got permision Sunday and I hope I get get back there one more time. It was apparent to me that in the past it has been hunted the ground was pretty clear of beeps. Near the newer garage I found two clad pennies. Around the front of the house off the old marble steps I got a good hit and dug a wheatie at about 6 inches. I rechecked the hole and it was still beeping so I poked around and I find another wheatie so I go to cover the hole and I think to myself better recheck it one more time sure enough another wheatie the last pass was noiseless. Guess I got them all. Around the back of the house I dug a square nail, a spike, a pc of lead and an other pc of iron. I dug several bigger pcs but left them In the ground so as not to make a mess on the lawn. The rest of the coins came out of a 1 foot area near the flower garden (must be someones pocket emptied as they bent over.
Wheaties. 1916 D oldest I have found to date, not in great shape though.1953 S (I think) and a 1953.
Canadian pennies 1994 and 1989.
thanks for looking.

Way to go Maria!

Just look at what you might have left behind if not for checking again!

Congrats!

Good finds.

Had this happen many times myself.

The trouble with a good find is it's easy to forget to recheck the hole.

Another big problem is sometimes dug tokens won't sound-off once dug. They're often made of weird metals and deep down in discrimination mode they'll give a cent-like signal but on the surface you may get nothing.

This is why these are often found laying on the ground in parks. People dig them but then lose the signal and walk away thinking it was falsing. This happens a lot with buttons too.

I sometimes forget also...because I am sooooo busy dancing around the hole when I find something good or else passed out from the excitement...focus gypsy focus

Nice work, mchamby!

I dug a wheat yesterday down about, oh I don't know, roughly 8 miles below the surface of the earth. When I rechecked the hole, there was clearly another signal. I dug, and dug, and dug.... but the lawn was a really nice one and eventually I just had to give up. I'm getting a probe *very* soon--and then going back to about 47 different holes all around the city that I gave up on.

Keep up the good work!

So easy to overlook this. Fun finding multiple coins in a hole.

I was tired of finding pennies and then I came to a spot that had three pennies,one dime , one nickle and one quarter in the same hole.
Recheck, recheck, and recheck that hole. Burdie

You also might want to recheck your plugs. It's easy to miss something if you find one in it and assume it's the cause. More than once I got a signal, found a nickle and realized that my disc. was a bit too high for that to sound off. There was a dime hidden further in the plug, not the hole.

You are so right about checking the hole again after you find a coin
in it. Ap has taught me about that one and now I always check a
second time. Great job!!
