. . . coins are where you find them.
Yesterday I was telling a friend about our trip to Nevada and he said a guy had explained to him where an old school had been in the past. The building had been moved but he had a general description of where the site is.
I located the spot he described and cranked up the Deus with the 11” coil on the GM Power program and went to work. There were no indications of a building or broken glass but I found some hay wire, fence staples, a square nut, and a steel drink can with the aluminum ends. Then a pretty good signal and behold, they are where you find them! A couple inches deep a 1941 quarter popped out of a root ball.
I wonder if it might be a GI drop from the date and condition but there was no GI garbage. No pencil eraser metal or other school junk so I’ll have to get better directions before I return.
