Coinshooting an old house

I know what you mean. With enough time, removing much of the trash would allow for recovery of more coins. There is so much trash there! :shocked04: Hopefully you will get in a few more hunts before it is no longer allowed. I bet you will still pull a large copper or two from there. :happydance01: The buttons you are finding are great though, and that 1889 IH should clean up nicely. :smitten:
 
I think there are more coins there George. You cleaned out the top layer :) Great finds!! I love old homestead sites :smitten:
 
Congrats on giving it another whirl George. :clapping:
Somehow it just doesn't seem right that an

WTG George. It's hard to give up on a spot when you know there are some good things to be found. :daydream:

Those IHs and buttons are nice finds and made the hunt worthwhile. :yes:

I gave up on a spot in March, but the pictures in this post bring the reality of MDing home to us newbies....I gave up on this spot because of all the trash at that site. I found a large copper, piece of silver ( trime ) and a nice token, but the trash was so overwhelming that I went elsewhere. :crazy:

Knowing how old the site is and that is does in fact hold good finds I will take the time to wade through all the junk for the opportunity to find some of those old hidden coins. :daydream:
