<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cranman, post: 526678, member: 16678&quot;]I had one of the lowest priced white detectors a while back and actually found a gold plated broach beside my driveway, after searching several other spots with no luck. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Weird story: there is a small cemetary in the woods by my house with several graves and only one has readable dates. It was from the mid 1700&#039;s or so for the birth date and late 1700&#039;s for the date of death. So I was always curious what may be in/around the gravesites. It was surrounded by a low wall of stacked rocks and quite overgrown. So I was detecting in the area by some old barn and only hitting on junk, scrap metal, wire, nails etc. Curiosity gets the bast of me and I start detecting around the outside of the rock wall. No hits, and I&#039;m dying to detect inside the wall but know if I get a hit I surely can&#039;t dig in there! Finally I give in and do some quick sweeps inside the wall. I got a strong hit right over the old grave! Now what do I do? I know if I don&#039;t dig a little my curiousity will haunt me (no pun intended) forver, but I can&#039;t dig too deep! I dig down about 4 inches, really just clear leaves, and found 21c. Two modern dimes and a penny, all together in one spot. I pocket it, do one more quick swep of the hole, and get out of there. So I wonder, who dropped 21c in that one spot over the grave? My guess is that some kids or teens were out messing around and someone layed down there and some change fell out of their pocket?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anyways, I know it was wrong, flame me if you really need to, and I will admit that I let my curosity get the best of me! Heck, even now I wish I have a better detector to check the area <i>outside </i>the graves and see what turns up. Way back then people did not keep their money in banks, and I&#039;m <i>certain </i>there are some jars of gold coins in the area <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
