Most people are not going to want to tell you about their spots. As you have realized, they are hard to come by.

You can ask people you know, that have older houses, to see if you can detect their yards.

Here's a site that allows comparison of old aerial photographs to new ones. Very helpful in finding where old houses, etc. used to be.

Go to your county historical society and see if they have any older map reprints or old maps you can study, then look for places that were used long ago and not used now. Find out who now owns the properties and ask permission. Sometimes permission is given, sometimes not, but if you don't ask you will never know.

Look for spots that you "Can" get into..... "Then research it" Where you are (Delaware), People have been "Everywhere" on the East coast. City, County and State property, Public. Where do people lose things? Everywhere! I'm in WV and have detected over 40 years. My best spots? Along the railroad tracks and along the creeks and streams. People always needed water, Kids always played along rivers and streams. Nothing there now! Use your imagination!

Hi, I live in Lansdowne and want to get back into detecting. My son and I both have mid range Bounty Hunters. We should hook up and find spots.
