After the great find I made last month of the 32nd Degree Mason watch fob(http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/349686-old-park-hunt-gold.html#post3324168) I thought I would have a long dry spell. I got permission from another family member to hunt there property which was the grandson's that was built about 1890. The original home burnt in 1942 and another was built in it's place. The front part of the new home is on the same foundation. I started off at the left side of the walkway and with-in 10 feet I got a nice high tone. I cut a plug at 4" and pulled out a 1948 Washington Quarter. I checked the hole with my pin-pointer and nothing else. I covered it, but ran over it again with my detector in-which it sounded again. I pulled up the same plug and checked the side of the hole and found a 1944 Washington Quarter on it's side. I thought that should be it so I again covered the hole. I ran the coil over the same area and it sounded off just to the left of the hole. Digging another plug I found a 1964 Washington Quarter and a 1964 Rosie Dime. Finally the hole was clear. I dug a few wheats in that area of the walkway. I then moved closer the the road where there were a lot of pull-tabs. I got another nice tone next to a large Cedar tree. This is where I dug the Barber Quarters and dime. The bottom piece is a Good For 5 Cents In Trade Token
