Got permission to detect a farm today that's been in the same family since the 1790's. Found one small area that was hot with large cents and pulled 6. 1817, 1822, 1827, 1831, one matron head with no date and one classic head with no date. Also found a little silver. I hunted about an acre or so around the house. 120+ acres to go
Very nice Don. A place like that should keep you busy for years to come.

That's a great hunt! Must be lots of goodies still there. They look like they'll clean up great, lots of good detail on them.

Congrats! nice start to a new location! good luck with the rest of the place.
OH MAN! That is very exciting. I hope there are many more hot spots on those acres. I bet you are working through some iron around the house to find those keepers. Keep it up!
