    Exclamation Demo House

    Last week I posted about a house demo I've got permission to hunt, before the actual demo begins.
    Here's a link to that tread "Wonder Coin": http://www.americandetectorist.com/f...34-Wonder-Coin

    There was interest in a follow up on any future hunts here.

    As it turns out. I'm happy to follow up on this place!!!

    Here's a recap on the first night at the demo site.

    Monday 18th:


    I went back Wednesday and found a couple more silvers. 2 Washington quarters and 10 more wheats.
    Is Johnny Appleseed from Ohio?

    Wednesday 20th:


    This week I went Tuesday night again. Found 3 more silver dimes and a old silver class ring!!

    Tuesday 26th:


    I went back last night, Thursday night, and had the best silver count night so far!! 7 silvers in one night!! Plus another dime Tri-fecta!!

    Thursday 28th:


    I hope they don't plan on demoing this old house too soon! So until then... gonna keep ooooon hittin' it!!!

    Thanks for lookin & HH!

    That is an awesome spot! Pretty cool to know it has obviously never been detected before and won't be again! Nice permission, great finds.
