Finally got Permission & Had to hunt in the Rain

[jeff of pa]

went over to check if anyone was around the 1875 School Today,
and there happened to be a Truck there unloading a Coffin,
So I stopped & asked if he owned the place.

After telling me no & Just delivering, He gave me the Phone # of the Funeral Home that uses it for storage, so I made a call Quick, Long story short, he called me back within 5 Minutes & told me he Buried the Pile of Gold in the yard, So if I find it, It's His










Of course shortly after I started it started to drizzle

Little while later Drizzle turned to steady rain
so I broke out the Baggie



Little while Longer I was wishing for a Life size Baggie for Me
at it got Heavier & the Winds Picked up.

Reminded me of Caddy Shack



& I started expecting Thunder & Lightening,

so after 2 Hours it was time to come home Wring myself out & turn the Heat on

Gas Rebate today,
A respectable $1.63



Some Trash



Brass



Lead



Pencil Eraser



Green Penny, Electrolysis didn't help



But Possible Indian



of course could just be damage.
as it almost looks like Lincolns head Now that it is Posted

#40 MatchBox




and of course I spied some work going on next door at the Carnival Ground
I'll have to look at if the rain ever stops

Looks like a great spot, must be a shame you had to spend all that money for a machine you have to put in a bag?

HaHa ! That's Funny !

Thanks !

Yeah, Jeff! It started raining here while I was detecting so I went to the Blazer, got my raincoat ( for ME ) and kept on digging, lol. Looks like a nice place. Hope you get back soon when it isn't raining.

I'm thinking Monday at this point.
at the moment they are saying Upper 70's & Sunny

There's always a funny guy mentioning the gold they lost if you find it! Lol!

Nice bunch of finds you got! There probably some silver there too.

Jeff I didn't know you could find those erasers with a metal defector! I find the metal part that holds 'em, but not the eraser.

I keep zip bags and a cheap rain poncho in the truck when I'm detecting, prefer to take my showers inside in warm water. Hope you don't get a cold now.

Looks like you've got some nice spots to hunt! GL. HH!

I am hoping to hit the grass edges of a tot lot Sunday, in hopes of finding that elusive ring! They use those rubber mats in the tot lot so there's nothing to dig!

Yes I have a rain Hood for My Explorer too But it was sitting here at home
didn't look like rain & was 66 & climbing when I headed out the door.
I won't leave it at home again
last thing I need is a Cold, Though I rarely get them & when I did I usually got rid of them Very Quick.
But then that was when I smoked & I figure the Nicotine Killed the Cold Germs in Me.
Now I don't have that cure so

Good Luck Sunday !

Ya know, I just love hunting a place that looks like that, it sort of takes me back to that time. Every time I look
around, it gives me a thrill.

A good find or two wouldn't hurt either. But, just being there is neat.

Thanks for sharing!

HaHa Yes the Ground is So Moist here in N.E. PA digging almost anywhere is Digging in Mud

A place like that could really throw an old coin at you very easily. If you re digging shot gun brass it has not been metal detected much. That is a target every machine says to dig. Try that coin in some warm peroxide and see what it does. Lots of targets for a rainy Pa day.

I've been looking at that Yard for 3 Years now.
I must admit since I was doing practically everything next to it,
And it is used every time there is a Carnival beside it
odds are the Boro or Church even Mows it while they are at it,
I was very tempted to just help myself. But something said wait & ask

The amount of Brass is very odd considering location

 

[Argentium]

That's a great old property ! I can't wait to see what you find when you get a fair weather shot at it - the construction area looks tasty too .

 

[Tnmountains]

Sounds like it might have some jewelry in there to. I know when I dig that brass it has not been hunted much if at all. Yeah I get tempted to.. The area looks great. Good luck. Glad you guys are able to get out at last.

Yes sir, I agree. I hunted a new cornfield yesterday and 2 out of the 3 good targets in it were old shotgun brass.

the Construction area is these 2 Buildings.
is Circled here



One is now sitting on the edge of the Yard I got permission for today.
Probably Temporary
But appears they are building a New longer Concession.

I really wanna detect the edges in case coins rolled under the old Buildings,
Or change was lost before they even put them there the first time

the 5 Nickels also were nice finds. it means if Someone has snuck in they were ignoring Gold Signals

Yea Brass is Everywhere in PA

 

[DKinPA]

Nice finds Jeff....we have been drooling over that yard for a long time!
