geof_junk Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Valens Legacy, I was going to suggest to detect a more public area,that has more people using it than a private property. However if, your Grandfather has not detected it, the fact it was and old church you may be onto silver soon. I had a fantastic run on the vacant land next to a Nunnery/Convent resident. I found heaps of 1800's UK silver coins and 1919-30 Aust silver coins (they were all sterling silver). The real find was a Sterling Silver pocket watch with a porcelain face and had a ruby on the back. The watch was lost by a Nun. It turn out that the property was a school and the building was burnt down in the early 1930's and the new one was built 2 streets away. That was another gold mine for coins also. So keep detecting even if you find a few or none it will be good training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
