Well here is what I found so far in the front yard nothing major,But I'm feeling more confident in which targets to dig up. I did find a lot more beer cans that coins! I was tired of my store bought shovel breaking on me so I made my own. It doesn't look very good, But it does a pretty good job even in heavy rock soil. Thanks for looking!

I had a piece of round solid stock and then cut a piece of flat steel out, shaped it and welded it altogether.Then ground everything down.
