I discovered (for myself) a wonderful site only 20 minutes away from me. I actually spotted the place about a year ago while looking through aerial photographs. All those stone walls in the middle of the woods had to mean something was there.
The first trip I went I scouted for most of the day, but ended up detecting for an hour and finding a 1/2 Real.
2 days later (today) I return and this time I concentrate on detecting. I manage to uncover 2 Matron Head large cents and one crusty Indian. I am shocked that I am finding anything at this site, because it's been hit hard before. Just goes to show you that swinging your coil in the most uncomfortable and awkward of places at a pounded site will surprise you...
Happy hunting and good luck out there, cellar rats! :grin:
