New To Forum And Detecting

I'm new to this forum and new to metal detecting. I received a Whties DFX for Christmas and just wanted to show off a few of my finds from monday and tuesday. I had three first on those two days.
I got off work (monday) at my normal 4:30pm time so I decided I would try and get some metal detecting in. I sat all day at work yesterday trying to figure out where I should go in order to get the hang of my new DFX and to also find enough stuff to help me figure out what I Was doing (no junk).... Well after some long thought it hit me like a ton of bricks! Our Fraternal Order of Police Lodge sits on an old Boy Scout camp and is also currently used by the YMCA and Kiwanis club for summer camp. I knew that this would be a good spot because no one would be there but me and I figured that very few, if anyone at all, had hit this place before. Well 4:30 rolled around and I was running out the door and home. I managed to get to the lodge by 4:45.... don't ask just know I got there... I jump out of the car excited about what treasures awaited me, or junk, but either way I was determined to have fun... Well I did. By the end of the first day I had found $2.86 cents in change (clad), one kids necklace charm, and one 1899 Indian Head penny. The Indian Head was a complete surprise to me. I had been finding all modern clad items when I got around a flag pole that had recently been installed. When searching around it I got a weird signal. I pulled my pinpoint trigger and it showed the item to be about an inch deep. The signal bounced back and forth and finally displayed a 1 cent sign, tone, and VDI. I figured, "Heck another Lincoln Cent to go with the other 20!" Well I dug and saw that the coin was bent so I figured it was worthless. Well I used a bit of nature's degreaser (spit) and found, to my surprise, that the coin was an indian head! It is in HORRIBLE shape and bent like someone hit it with a shovel (no I didn't hit it) but to me it's priceless becasue it is my first Indian Head! I guess whoever dug the flagpole out dug this up also.
Tuesday I sat at work fidgeting around waiting for 4:30 to hit. Well at 4:10 I couldn't stand it and ran out the door. I had a Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) meeting that night at 7pm there so I figured I would hunt until everyone showed up (yes even in the dark!). Well I got to the lodge about 4:30 and started my work in an area that was away from the newer playground. This area had older swings and was built sometime in the 70's. Wel the first target I hit was a 1958 Wheat cent! My first Wheatie! What a two day run so far! Now if I could just find some stupid silver! Anyways, I went back to searching when I got a strong, and I mean strong, 25 cent signal. It was loud, sharp, and the graph was peaked out with one solid bar... I thought, "SILVER!" Well I pinpointed the target to 3.5 inches and then plunged the shovel into the soft earth. I pried the ground up and sitting right under my clump were 4 quartes neatly stacked one on top of the other. One 1980, one 1973, and two 1971 (none silver). I looks like someone buried them there. I hit that area super hard trying to see if this was someone's hiding spot but nothing else was found in a 10 foot area around this. By nights end I had $3.89 in clad money and a gold earing.
So far with my new DFX I found all modern clads (except a dollar), a Wheat penny, Indian Head penny, charm, and earing. I hope to keep hitting this spot and searching deeper to find the silver. I know it is there.... Has to be..
