[QUOTE="Metalman, post: 22996, member: 1454"]Vlad You can find coins with just about any detector,, the differences show up in how many pull tabs you will dig based on the discrimination of your particular machine,, All areas have there own rules locally that cover where metal detecting can be done legally,, I suggest that you check with your local authorities unless someone who lives in your same area can answer. an average day is a lot of looking and a little finding, Best way to be successful is to do a lot of research before hand, find out where the old buildings were , carnival sites are good looking, old school playgrounds are also a good place, keep in mind that historical sites are taboo,, fair grounds are good if you can go in and look. just about any place where people gather can be productive,, even hiking trails have produced silver coins for me in this area, camp grounds that have been around for awhile can produce older silver coins ,, I do not limit my search areas to places for coins, I also look for military items as the calvary was in this area for quite some time, Ive found uniform buttons , belt buckles and spurs , shell casings as well as live shells , old mess kit implements, and such things, but everyone has there own vision when they go out for a day of metal detecting. Good hunting !![/QUOTE]
