It's sad when you can't remember which houses you've detected. Been doing this since the 80's. Finished up work a little early and saw a man in his driveway and asked permission. After the yes, I ask if it's been detected, and he's like not in a long time but once. Finally realize it was me! But what the hell, a better machine now. Didn't get anything but nails and wheats back in the day. Well, the short front yard hunt got me a plated bell, two 1919 wheats, 1912 wheat, 1916 buff, worn 1918 merc, and a fresh drop 1956 rosie. Not bad for a yard I'd done. Pulled a few nails too, and some where in the hole with the coins. Attests to the E-Trac's abilities. :cool: Just wish I could have pulled something older. House is an 1880 home a few blocks from my house.

Nice finds. New technology keeps everything open to a new look. I hunted in the 70s with my Dad and there is only 1 spot I can remember NOT finding some silver when I hunted it again with newer equipment. Nice finds. WD
