Donnie B. and I hit a couple of older sites today but unfortunately they were pretty depleted of goodies . After spending half the day at these two sites all I got for my efforts were a very tiny thimble and a broken piece from an early saddle pommel . I knew about a close by cellar site but it was right behind a newer home so I asked Donnie how was his door knocking skillsHe stepped up to the challenge ! The home owner "Paul" didn't even know there was an old foundation behind his home a few hundred yards away !
After showing him a small display of items I typically find at these sites and Donnie's Southern charm "WE WERE IN" !
The briars and wild rose bushes were terrible and it was a challenge to find the small cellar ! the swinging room was very limited but it wasn't long before I had a great sounding target right on the cellar lip !It was a nice "Jaw harp"
about 15 minutes later I get a nice tone that rang about +67-68 on the DFX , 2 1/2" inches down I see a small silver coin
I had to post it on the forum via cell phone !!
about an hour later I get another great "screamer" of a target and pull up a rough looking King George II half penny !
Its been about two weeks since going out and I really needed this !
Thanks all
Dan

The site was so choked off with briars and the ticks are out so it made for one tough hunt , Donnie and I will probably detect this one much later in the season or even next year just after the snows , Thanks ChrisOriginally Posted by Digger_O'Dell

If only I had the money to do so Noah !
Not nearly as nice as yours Drew but it is odd how we both found the same year half real in the same yearA real beauty, Dan!
So Donnie B closes the permission and you reap the rewards.....sounds like RobW and myself.
I was due for a nice day out Al
Thank you Jeff , it was Donnie's first time seeing Spanish silver at a cellar site and I think he was more excited than I
I agree we might start doing more door knocking especially as the days get hotterThanks partner !
I know that sounds so odd doesn't it Don ?Wow, door knocking cellar holes. Whoda thunk it
Great job Dan, the real cleaned up great.
Congrats on the copper as well!

Del. The work makes the silver all the more appreciated to the detectorist! I'd mount that coin and hang it on the wall!
