My names Tim and I was given a inexpensive metal detector for my bithday last year. I've found pocket change on the beach and a old rusted 1965 quarter in my front yard. Thats not to mention the junk. Any one have any tips on finding old places to go or tips on the best ways to search. Thanks

Hi, Tim. I've had two detecting buddies named Tim, now. One of them is one of our top diggers here.
The sidewalks and parks in the older parts of town have been good to me. Check with local law enforcement to see what's kosher in your town. In most cities, that strip of grass between the sidewalk and the curb is public, and legal. And often full of silver and goodies, in the older neighborhoods. Sometimes the homeowners get uptight, though, and if that happens, rather than arguing with them about how it's public property, just move along, as there are plenty of other sidewalks.
Old yards, particularly of the Victorian and older homes, are fantastic, if you can get permission.
I was lucky enough to tag along with a friend who had permission to hunt two such old Victorian house lots.
