Went to a new location not far from where I live just to test it out, was there 20 mins max, dug 10 targets and pulled up 2 silvers and 3 penny's, never thought it would have any finds, how wrong I was.

Yeah, treasures can come from the most unexpected places sometimes.
I'm just researching a new spot at the mo. I'll be in touch once I know a bit more about it and maybe we can plan another roadie.
