I have to share a great hunting tip with you guys (especially for old coins.)
Find an old neighborhood of homes that date back to a time before most homes had washing machines. Most of them would have had clothes lines in the back yards. Try to locate where the posts for the clothes lines were and search between them.
Old coins, jewelry, etc. that were left in the clothes tended to fall out of the pockets and folds and concentrate in those areas between the poles.
Some of the easiest and most interesting finds ever!
