Most of the relatively trash-free sites, be it an old park or new park, have been work pretty well searched through the years. If you $ tackle the trashier areas you could go home empty-handed.

Like you, I and others need to use the same approach. It seems that in the last 10 to 20 years most places I searched have been trashier sites, whether it's Relic Hunting an old site or picking on an urban area Park or vacant lot.

Naturally, they don't usually give up 'V' nickels so that had to be a nice surprise for you. And hunting the trash is a great place to have that 6 inch concentric coil mounted. I use that coil exclusively on all four of my Tesoro's, with very satisfactory results.

All the best on your next outing.
