I find Wheaties but not much else

[leep33]

Hi, I haven't posted on here in a long time due to the fact that until this year I haven't done very much coin hunting with my metal detector. Anyway here is my question. I go to schools and parks and an old abandoned bar down the road and all I ever find is pocket change and occasionally a few Wheat pennies. I never find any silver coins at all. What gives. I mean I'm sure that if people droped the wheat pennies years ago then they surely dropped some silver Roosevelt dimes and Washington Quarters. What gives. Any advice.

I have the same problem in a friend of mine's yard. Wheaties out the wazoo but no silver.
