    Funny... I would expect that Astoria wouldn't have anything good underground. I hope you'll come back to Queens and try other areas - Maybe Flushing meadow park? Near where all the expressways meet? Anyway, I'm always interested to see your finds, but I do understand that it takes a lot of energy and time to search. Thanks for sharing what you find with us @paddyman98

    You may not have found any silver coins but at least you did find silver. Nice little haul. Glad you got out as it rained for a day and a half here. Very soggy-your shovel would need holes in it if you detected here. But it did make the dirt soft. :)

    Flushing Meadows was were the 1939 & 1964 World's Fairs were located. My dad's parents went to both. Bet my grandfather dropped a coin or two at both. ;)
