I had a great time reading this forum and trying out metal detecting. I can say that I was hooked and can not wait to go out next year. I spent most of my time just trying to locate old cellar holes, farm fields and older rec fields. I used a gold bug pro which I am highly questioning if this is the best detector for what I am doing. It is just way to sensitive around trashy areas and electric fences I basically can not get within 50 feet of an electric fence which ironically is were my best spots are. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated. I am located in Vermont So I have a lot of unchecked cellar holes to go. I still never found any large cents or seated maybe next year. Good luck to all this coming year. Thanks for looking
The first three pics are from one field that I researched and know that it was heavily used in the 1800's for multiple events but I did not find one coin from the 1800's, but by far my best site totals are:
three quarters from the 1960's no silver
three Nichols 1943 Canadian, 1961, 1957
forty-five wheat pennies most dated pre 1930
one indian head 1906
silvers are: 1911 barber, 1919 Canadian dime, 1923 merc, 1941 merc, 1926 merc, 1924 merc, 1930 merc, 1957 rosy, and a 1918 walker
and the rings jewelry and buttons
The next pics are from multiple other sites
thirty wheat pennies
three indian heads including a 1884 in awesome shape
silver includes: two 42 mercs, 37 merc,41 merc,61 rosy, 46 rosy, and a 29 standing quarter
and other notables
