Doug and I return to continue metal detecting at an 1820’s home that we started last year. On our first trip there were sections of the yard that were inaccessible due to new grass seed being spread, but now a year later that area is establisihed and able to be hunted, and what a treasure hunt we had. Some of the biggest and oldest silver coins we’ve found at this place, and it isn’t finished yet!
