I knocked on that Pakistani gentleman's door again, and as promised, he let me hunt his backyard. I found that merc on his front lawn last Wednesday. His yard is tiny, maybe 25' long by 20' wide, but, his house was built in the teens I believe, so, I thought there was a lot of silver potential.

It turned out to be not as good as I thought, however, hunting a private yard was a GIANT respite from the parks. Really amazing digging down 3 or 4" and pulling out an old coin, versus having to dig down 10 or 11" in some of my urban spots. There was practically NO trash! That alone was heaven I dug every signal except iron. Everything in the pics came from the yard, with the exception of the war nickel, which was found in an open field. Anywho...

1941 Washington
1945 war nickel
1883 Indian
2 buffs - 1928 & no date
6 wheats
Copper religious charm
Toy truck

After hunting the yard, I got spoiled. I didn't want to go back to the park again. Been awhile since I've done a private property, and forgot how much fun it was. Think I'll be knocking on more doors, soon.

P.S. - Some of the neighbors noticed me, and I chatted them up. One lives in a house built in 1902. He even has a detector "somewhere in his garage", lol. Said I can hunt it anytime
